Solution

The correct option is C

Borrow one ten from the hundreds place.


Comparing the digits at the tens place of the given numbers, we note that 5 < 9.

Since we cannot subtract 9 from 5, we borrow 1 ten from the hundreds place and thus the tens place becomes 15.

Then, we can subtract 9 from 15 to get 6.

550 190–– 360––
