Question

Find the difference:

$\mathrm{Th}\mathrm{H}\mathrm{T}\mathrm{O}5125-1261$

Answer 1

Step 1: Subtract the ones

Given difference: $\mathrm{Th}\mathrm{H}\mathrm{T}\mathrm{O}5125-1261$

First subtract ones $5-1=4$,

Write $4$ under ones column

Step 2: subtract the tens

As $2$ is lesser than $6$, we can not subtract directly

Take $1$carry from hundreds,

Now, $1$ becomes $12$ in tens place

Next subtract tens $12-6=6$,

Write $6$ under tens column .

Step 3: Subtract the hundreds

Now $1$becomes $0$ (as $1$carry taken away by tens )

As $0$ is lesser than $2$, we can not subtract directly

Take $1$carry from thousands ,

Now, $0$ becomes $10$ in hundreds place

Next subtract hundreds $10-2=8$,

Write $8$ under hundreds column .

Step 4: Subtract the thousands

$5$ becomes $4$ in thousands place ( as $1$ carry taken by hundreds)

And finally subtract thousand $4-1=3$

So we get,

$\mathrm{Th}\mathrm{H}\mathrm{T}\mathrm{O}5125+12613864$

Hence, the required solution is $3864$
