Solution - Long subtraction
105
Step-by-step explanation
1. Rewrite the numbers from top to bottom, aligned by their place values
| Place value | hundreds | tens | ones |
| 1 | 1 | 2 | |
| - | 7 | ||
2. Subtract the numbers using long subtraction method
Because the upper digit (2) in the ones column is too small to get a positive difference, borrow 1 from the digit (1) in the next number place which becomes (0) and get (12).
| Place value | hundreds | tens | ones |
| 0 | 12 | ||
| 1 | 1 | 2 | |
| - | 7 | ||
Subtract the numbers in the ones column from the top number:
12-7=5
| Place value | hundreds | tens | ones |
| 0 | 12 | ||
| 1 | 1 | 2 | |
| - | 7 | ||
| 5 |
Write 0 in the tens place.
| Place value | hundreds | tens | ones |
| 0 | 12 | ||
| 1 | 1 | 2 | |
| - | 7 | ||
| 0 | 5 |
Write 1 in the hundreds place.
| Place value | hundreds | tens | ones |
| 0 | 12 | ||
| 1 | 1 | 2 | |
| - | 7 | ||
| 1 | 0 | 5 |
The solution is: 105
