Math worksheet titled 'Subtracting on a Grid (A)' featuring twelve 5-digit subtraction problems arranged in a grid format to assist with alignment.

Let's solve each subtraction problem on the grid step by step. The task is to subtract the bottom number from the top number in each box, using column-by-column subtraction (starting from the rightmost digit), and handle borrowing as needed.

1.

```
5 9 0 5 0
- 4 8 3 1 5
----------
```

Start from the right:
- 0 - 5 → borrow: 10 - 5 = 5, but we need to borrow from left.
- 5 becomes 4, 0 becomes 10 → 10 - 5 = 5
- 4 - 1 = 3 (but we borrowed, so it’s now 4)
- 0 - 3 → can’t do, borrow: 10 - 3 = 7, then 9 becomes 8
- 8 - 8 = 0
- 5 - 4 = 1

Wait — let's go carefully:

Digits:
```
5 9 0 5 0
- 4 8 3 1 5
-------------
```

Step-by-step:

- Units: 0 - 5 → borrow → 10 - 5 = 5, tens digit (5) becomes 4
- Tens: 4 - 1 = 3
- Hundreds: 0 - 3 → can't do, borrow from thousands (9). But 9 is in thousands place.
- Thousands: 9 → 8, hundreds: 10 → 10 - 3 = 7
- Thousands: 8 - 8 = 0
- Ten-thousands: 5 - 4 = 1

So result: 10735

✔ Answer: 10735

2.

```
9 0 2 0 7
- 4 9 8 2 1
----------
```

- Units: 7 - 1 = 6
- Tens: 0 - 2 → borrow → 10 - 2 = 8, hundreds digit (2) becomes 1
- Hundreds: 1 - 8 → borrow from thousands (0), which needs to borrow from ten-thousands
- Ten-thousands: 9 → 8, thousands: 0 → 10, but we need to borrow for hundreds
- So thousands: 10 → 9, hundreds: 10 + 1 = 11 → 11 - 8 = 3
- Thousands: 9 - 9 = 0
- Ten-thousands: 8 - 4 = 4

Result: 40386

✔ Answer: 40386

5 9 6 9 7
- 2 7 6 0 6
----------
```

- Units: 7 - 6 = 1
- Tens: 9 - 0 = 9
- Hundreds: 6 - 6 = 0
- Thousands: 9 - 7 = 2
- Ten-thousands: 5 - 2 = 3

Result: 32091

5 2 7 6 2
- 3 4 1 6 2
----------
```

- Units: 2 - 2 = 0
- Tens: 6 - 6 = 0
- Hundreds: 7 - 1 = 6
- Thousands: 2 - 4 → borrow → 12 - 4 = 8, ten-thousands: 5 → 4
- Ten-thousands: 4 - 3 = 1

Result: 18600

✔ Answer: 18600

5.

```
8 7 4 3 9
- 4 9 9 9 3
----------
```

- Units: 9 - 3 = 6
- Tens: 3 - 9 → borrow → 13 - 9 = 4, hundreds: 4 → 3
- Hundreds: 3 - 9 → borrow → 13 - 9 = 4, thousands: 7 → 6
- Thousands: 6 - 9 → borrow → 16 - 9 = 7, ten-thousands: 8 → 7
- Ten-thousands: 7 - 4 = 3

Result: 37446

✔ Answer: 37446

6.

```
9 4 9 2 4
- 8 5 6 4 7
----------
```

- Units: 4 - 7 → borrow → 14 - 7 = 7, tens: 2 → 1
- Tens: 1 - 4 → borrow → 11 - 4 = 7, hundreds: 9 → 8
- Hundreds: 8 - 6 = 2
- Thousands: 4 - 5 → borrow → 14 - 5 = 9, ten-thousands: 9 → 8
- Ten-thousands: 8 - 8 = 0

Result: 9277

But wait: 94924 - 85647 = ?

Let me double-check:

Actually, after borrowing:
- Ten-thousands: 9 → 8 (after borrow)
- Thousands: 4 → 14 (after borrow), then 14 - 5 = 9
- Hundreds: 9 → 8 (after borrow), 8 - 6 = 2
- Tens: 2 → 1, then 11 - 4 = 7
- Units: 4 → 14 - 7 = 7

So digits: 0 (ten-thousands), 9 (thousands), 2 (hundreds), 7 (tens), 7 (units)

→ 9277

But 94924 - 85647 = 9277? Let's verify:

85647 + 9277 = 85647 + 9000 = 94647; +277 = 94924 ✔

Yes.
