The top digit in a column is smaller than what you&#8217;re subtracting. You borrow a ten from the column to its left.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">62 \u2212 35 is a decent starting example. The ones column has 2, and you&#8217;re subtracting 5, which doesn&#8217;t work without help. So you borrow a ten from the tens column, turning 2 into 12. 12 \u2212 5 = 7. That borrowing knocked the tens column from 6 down to 5, so 5 \u2212 3 = 2. Answer 27.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The one that actually trips kids up is when there&#8217;s a zero involved. 403 \u2212 178, for instance. The ones column needs to subtract 8 from 3, which fails immediately. Normally you&#8217;d borrow from tens, but tens is sitting at zero, nothing to borrow. So the borrow has to reach further, into the hundreds column first. That turns 4 into 3, and gives tens a full 10 to work with. Now tens lends one of its ten to ones, dropping to 9 and pushing ones up to 13. From there: 13 \u2212 8 = 5, 9 \u2212 7 = 2, 3 \u2212 1 = 2. Final answer, 225. Worth walking through slowly with an actual student the first time this comes up, since the double borrow is genuinely confusing without seeing it laid out step by step.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-e815f38\" data-id=\"e815f38\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-e4a4294 elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"e4a4294\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-8da64a2\" data-id=\"8da64a2\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-fb995c0\" data-id=\"fb995c0\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-526bc3f elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"526bc3f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">A Few Tricks Worth Knowing\n<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5a6ac0f elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"5a6ac0f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Rounding helps more than people expect. 98 + 47 is easier as 100 + 47, then subtract the 2 you added.

Subtracting the smaller digit from the larger one regardless of which is on top is another, ignoring that borrowing is even needed. Zeros in the middle of a subtraction problem cause real trouble too, since the borrow has to jump two columns instead of one, and that&#8217;s not intuitive the first several times you see it. Misaligned digits when writing sums vertically, especially with numbers of different lengths, throws off otherwise correct math.

Physical objects or simple drawings representing hundreds, tens, and ones do more for understanding regrouping than steps written out on paper ever will. Working through a couple of problems out loud together, narrating the thinking rather than just checking whether the final number&#8217;s right, tends to surface misunderstandings faster. Mix addition and subtraction day to day instead of drilling one operation for a stretch.
