-----
416
```
- 7 - 1 = 6
- 3 - 2 = 1
- 8 - 4 = 4
✔ Answer: 416

2. 367 - 118

```
367
- 118
-----
249
```
- 7 - 8 → can't do, borrow from 6 → becomes 17 - 8 = 9
- 5 (after borrowing) - 1 = 4
- 3 - 1 = 2
✔ Answer: 249

3. 820 - 592

```
820
- 592
-----
228
```
- 0 - 2 → can't do, borrow from 2 → becomes 10 - 2 = 8, but now 1 (from 2) becomes 1
- 1 - 9 → can't do, borrow from 8 → becomes 11 - 9 = 2, and 8 becomes 7
- 7 - 5 = 2
✔ Answer: 228

4. 209 - 131

```
209
- 131
-----
78
```
- 9 - 1 = 8
- 0 - 3 → can't do, borrow from 2 → becomes 10 - 3 = 7, and 2 becomes 1
- 1 - 1 = 0
✔ Answer: 78

5. 734 - 384

```
734
- 384
-----
350
```
- 4 - 4 = 0
- 3 - 8 → can't do, borrow from 7 → becomes 13 - 8 = 5, 7 becomes 6
- 6 - 3 = 3
✔ Answer: 350

6. 612 - 444

```
612
- 444
-----
168
```
- 2 - 4 → can't do, borrow from 1 → becomes 12 - 4 = 8, 1 becomes 0
- 0 - 4 → can't do, borrow from 6 → becomes 10 - 4 = 6, 6 becomes 5
- 5 - 4 = 1
✔ Answer: 168

7. 900 - 156

```
900
- 156
-----
744
```
- 0 - 6 → can't do, borrow from 0 → need to go to 9
- Borrow 1 from 9 → 9 becomes 8, then 0 becomes 10
- But we need to borrow for units: so 10 becomes 9, and units become 10
- Units: 10 - 6 = 4
- Tens: 9 - 5 = 4
- Hundreds: 8 - 1 = 7
✔ Answer: 744
