P. 4
No. 6 is not larger than or equal to 8. If No, borrow a digit from
the Tens place, i.e. top number in the column to the left.
Cross out the top number on the column to the left (4), and write the
number one less (3) than it in its place. Write a 1 in front of the top
number in the column you are subtracting. The number will be 10 plus
the number (16), which will be larger than the bottom number in the
column.
Subtract the numbers, 16 – 8 = 8, write the answer below the
column (between the lines) and move to the Tens column.
