Addition result:

1,072 + 906 + 660 = 2,638

Final answer:
- 1,072 - 906 - 660 = - 2,638

The initial operation has become:

1,141 + 1,162 - 1,072 - 906 + 504 - 660 =


2,807 - 2,638

Now subtract the final numbers above:
2,807 - 2,638 = ?

Method used below: column subtracting, from right to left (traditional)

Stack the numbers on top of each other.

The ones digits line up in the first column from the right.

The tens digits line up in the next column to the left.

And so on...

Subtract column by column; start with the column on the right

Subtract the digits in the ones column:

7 - 8 = ?

The second digit is larger than the first.
Borrow from the next column to the left.

In this case we borrow across zero(s), a multiple step process:


Subtract 1 from the top digit in the column directly to the left.
But that digit is zero. You need to go further left.


Subtract 1 from the nearest column to the left with a non-zero top digit.
That is the column of the hundreds: 8 - 1 = 7.
Cross out the top digit you've borrowed 1 from: 8.
Write the answer above that digit: 7.


Cross out the zero(s) that you were going across to the left: 0.
Write a 9 above each one of the crossed out zeros.
Why? In fact we have subtracted 1 from 80: 80 - 1 = 79.


When borrowing, 1 ten = 10 ones.
Add 10 to the top digit in the column of the ones: 10 + 7 = 17.


  79 
 28017
- 2638

     

After borrowing, the subtraction has become:
17 - 8 = 10 + 7 - 8 = 10 + 7 - 8 = 7 + (10 - 8) = 7 + 2 = 9.
9 is the ones digit.
Write it down at the base of the ones column.

    9

Subtract the digits in the tens column:

0 9 - 3 = 6.
6 is the tens digit.
Write it down at the base of the tens column.


  79 
 28017
- 2638

   69

Subtract the digits in the hundreds column:

8 7 - 6 = 1.
1 is the hundreds digit.
Write it down at the base of the hundreds column.


  79 
 28017
- 2638

  169

Subtract the digits in the thousands column:

2 - 2 = 0.
0 is the thousands digit.
Write it down at the base of the thousands column.


  79 
 28017
- 2638

 0169

Leading zeros

When leading zeros occupy the most significant digits of a natural number, they could be left blank and the numeric value stays the same:

0169 = 169

Final answer:
1,141 + 1,162 - 1,072 - 906 + 504 - 660 = 169

How to subtract numbers? Let's learn with an example

The operation to perform: 52 - 37

Method used below: column subtracting, from right to left (traditional)


  • Stack the numbers on top of each other.
    • The ones digits line up in the first column from the right.
    • The tens digits line up in the next column to the left.
    •  52
      - 37

      ?
  • Subtract column by column; start with the column on the right.
  • Subtract the digits in the ones column: 2 - 7 = ?
    • The second digit is larger than the first. We need to borrow from the next column to the left:
      • Subtract 1 from the top digit in the column of the tens: 5 - 1 = 4.
      • Cross out the top digit you've borrowed 1 from: 5.
      • Write the answer above that digit: 4.
      • When borrowing, 1 ten = 10 ones: add 10 to the top digit in the column of the ones: 10 + 2 = 12.
    •  4 
       512
      - 37

         
    • After borrowing, the subtraction has become: 12 - 7 = 5.
    • 5 is the ones digit - write it down at the base of the ones column:
      •  4 
         512
        - 37

          5
  • Subtract the digits in the tens column:
    • 5 4 - 3 = 1.
    • 1 is the tens digit - write it down at the base of the tens column.
    •  4 
       512
      - 37

       15
  • Final answer: 52 - 37 = 15
