Arrange in columns and subtract:
(i) 1,342 from 7,645
(ii) 43,231 from 67,875
(iii) 7,990 from 32,489
(iv) 783 from 59,807
Answer (2)
To subtract the given numbers, we need to arrange them in columns and proceed with the subtraction process step-by-step. Let's do this for each problem:
(i) Subtract 1,342 from 7,645 :
[\begin{array}{c} 7,645 \
1,342 \ \hline \end{array}]
Begin subtracting from right to left:
Units: 5 - 2 = 3
Tens: 4 - 4 = 0
Hundreds: 6 - 3 = 3
Thousands: 7 - 1 = 6
Therefore, the answer is 6,303.
(ii) Subtract 43,231 from 67,875 :
[\begin{array}{c} 67,875 \
43,231 \ \hline \end{array}]
Subtract step-by-step:
Units: 5 - 1 = 4
Tens: 7 - 3 = 4
Hundreds: 8 - 2 = 6
Thousands: 7 - 3 = 4
Ten-thousands: 6 - 4 = 2
Thus, the answer is 24,644.
(iii) Subtract 7,990 from 32,489 :
[\begin{array}{c} 32,489 \
7,990 \ \hline \end{array}]
Subtract step-by-step:
Units: 9 - 0 = 9
Tens: 8 - 9 = -1, (borrow 1 from hundreds, making it 18 - 9 = 9)
Hundreds: 3 - 9 = -6, (borrow 1 from thousands, making it 13 - 9 = 4)
Thousands: 2 - 1 = 1
Therefore, the result is 24,499.
(iv) Subtract 783 from 59,807 :
[\begin{array}{c} 59,807 \
783 \
\hline \end{array}]
Subtract step-by-step:
Units: 7 - 3 = 4
Tens: 0 - 8 = -8, (borrow 1 from hundreds, making it 10 - 8 = 2)
Hundreds: 7 - 7 = 0
Thousands: 9 - 0 = 9
Ten-thousands: 5 - 0 = 5
Thus, the answer is 59,024.
We arranged the numbers in columns for subtraction. The results are: 6,303 for (i), 24,644 for (ii), 24,499 for (iii), and 59,024 for (iv). Each step involved borrowing when necessary, ensuring accuracy in the calculations.
