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

Subtract the digits in the ones column:

6 - 7 = ?

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

The borrowing is a two step process:


Subtract 1 from the top digit in the column of the tens: 3 - 1 = 2.
Cross out the top digit you've borrowed 1 from: 3.
Write the answer above that digit: 2.


When borrowing, 1 ten = 10 ones.
Add 10 to the top digit in the column of the ones: 10 + 6 = 16.

-  887

     

After borrowing, the subtraction has become:
16 - 7 = 10 + 6 - 7 = 10 + 6 - 7 = 6 + (10 - 7) = 6 + 3 = 9.
9 is the ones digit.
Write it down at the base of the ones column.

3 2 - 8 = ?

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

Subtract 1 from the top digit in the column of the hundreds: 6 - 1 = 5.
Cross out the top digit you've borrowed 1 from: 6.
Write the answer above that digit: 5.


When borrowing, 1 hundred = 10 tens.
Add 10 to the top digit in the column of the tens: 10 + 2 = 12.

After borrowing, the subtraction has become:
12 - 8 = 10 + 2 - 8 = 10 + 2 - 8 = 2 + (10 - 8) = 2 + 2 = 4.
4 is the tens digit.
Write it down at the base of the tens column.
