Question

Find the difference:
(i) 463 − 9
(ii) 5632 − 99
(iii) 8640 − 999
(iv) 13006 − 9999

Answer 1

(i) 463 − 9
= 463 − 10 + 1
= 464 − 10
= 454

(ii) 5632 − 99
= 5632 − 100 + 1
= 5633 − 100
= 5533

(iii) 8640 − 999
= 8640 − 1000 + 1
= 8641 − 1000
= 7641

(iv) 13006 − 9999
= 13006 − 10000 + 1
= 13007 − 10000
= 3007
