 Here in this example the minuend is bigger than the

subtrahend, So the sum is correct. But the ones place

of the minuend is less than the ones place of

subtrahend (8<9).

 So we need to borrow 1 tens from the tens place and

add that 10 to the ones place.

 As we have borrowed 1 tens from 6 tens it becomes 5

tens now.

 As we have added that 1 tens to the ones place so 8

becomes 18 now ( 10+8=18)
