    What is 72,780 − 2,468?

    Answer

    72,780 − 2,468 =
    70,312

    With regrouping: 1 borrow — from the tens

    72,780 − 2,468 in a column. Above the columns: the values after borrowing — a crossed-out digit is replaced by the number above it; +10 marks a column that received a borrowed ten.
    7+10
    7 2 7 8(was 8, now 7)0 (was 0, now 10)
    −2468
    70312

    Column by column: 72,780 − 2,468

    • Ones: 0 is less than 8 — borrow 1 ten: tens 8 → 7; 10 − 8 = 2 — write 2.
    • Tens: after borrowing, 7; 7 − 6 = 1 — write 1.
    • Hundreds: 7 − 4 = 3 — write 3.
    • Thousands: 2 − 2 = 0 — write 0.
    • Ten thousands: nothing to subtract — write 7.

    72,780 − 2,468 = 70,312

    Second check: 72,780 − 70,312 = 2,468
