Question

$753-388=$

• A. $453$
• B. $400$
• C. $365$
• D. $435$

Answer 1

The correct option is C $365$

Aligning both the numbers according to Place value (starting from the right):

For ones place, we can't subtract $8$ ones from $3$ ones, as $8$ > $3$. Thus, we borrow $1$ tens from the $5$.

$1$ tens = $10$ ones.
Now, at the ones place, we first add $10+3=13$ ones. Subtracting $8$ from $13$ , we get $5$.

Now,for Tens place, we are left with $4$ . Again, we can't subtract $8$ tens from $4$ tens, as $8$ > $4$. Thus, we borrow $1$ hundred from the $7$.
Subtracting $8$ tens from $14$ tens, we get $6$ tens.

Now, for hundreds place $6-3=3$ hundreds

Thus, the answer is $365$.
