Let's calculate the following difference:
We proceed using the standard algorithm.
The first step is to write the numbers in the usual way, where ones are aligned over ones, tens over tens, and hundreds over hundreds:
Next, we proceed by subtracting the numbers in each place value (from right to left):
Step 1. We cannot compute So, we borrow from the tens place. This leaves tens and ones:
Step 2. Then, we subtract ones from ones, tens from tens, and hundreds from hundreds:
Therefore,
What is
First, we line up our numbers (ones over ones, tens over tens, and hundreds over hundreds):
Next, we proceed by subtracting the numbers in each place value (from right to left):
Step 1. Subtracting the ones,
Step 2. Subtracting the tens,
Step 3. Subtracting the hundreds,
Therefore,
$263-130=$

Step 2. We cannot compute So, we borrow from the hundreds place:
Step 3: Then, we subtract tens and hundreds:

What is
First, we line up our numbers:
Next, we proceed by subtracting the numbers in each place value (from right to left):
Step 1. We cannot compute and there are tens to borrow from. So, we borrow from the hundreds place first:
Then, we borrow from the tens place:
Step 2. Then, we subtract ones, tens, and hundreds:
Therefore,
