3.792
Spiegazione passo passo
1. Rewrite the numbers from top to bottom, aligned by their place values
Place value | thousands | hundreds | tens | ones |
3 | 8 | 2 | 4 | |
- | 3 | 2 | ||
2. Subtract the numbers using long subtraction method
Subtract the numbers in the ones column from the top number:
4-2=2
Place value | thousands | hundreds | tens | ones |
3 | 8 | 2 | 4 | |
- | 3 | 2 | ||
2 |
Because the upper digit (2) in the tens column is too small to get a positive difference, borrow 1 from the digit (8) in the next number place which becomes (7) and get (12).
Place value | thousands | hundreds | tens | ones |
7 | 12 | |||
3 | 8 | 2 | 4 | |
- | 3 | 2 | ||
2 |
Subtract the numbers in the tens column from the top number:
12-3=9
Place value | thousands | hundreds | tens | ones |
7 | 12 | |||
3 | 8 | 2 | 4 | |
- | 3 | 2 | ||
9 | 2 |
Write 7 in the hundreds place.
Place value | thousands | hundreds | tens | ones |
