What is 900 − 348?

Answer

900 − 348 =
552

With regrouping across a zero: 2 borrows — there are no tens to borrow from, so 1 hundred becomes 10 tens, and 1 ten goes to the ones

900 − 348 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.

552

Column by column: 900 − 348

  • Ones: 0 is less than 8 — borrow 1 hundred across the zero: hundreds 9 → 8, tens 0 → 9; 10 − 8 = 2 — write 2.
  • Tens: after borrowing, 9; 9 − 4 = 5 — write 5.
  • Hundreds: after borrowing, 8; 8 − 3 = 5 — write 5.

900 − 348 = 552

Second check: 900 − 552 = 348
