Step-by-step solution for: 2 Digit Subtraction Worksheets With Regrouping
Let's solve each of the two-digit subtraction problems with regrouping. We'll go through them one by one, showing the steps for clarity.
---
We are subtracting two-digit numbers where regrouping (borrowing) is required when the bottom digit is larger than the top digit in a column.

1. 91 - 49 = 42 ✔ (Given as example)
- Ones place: 1 < 9 → borrow 1 from tens
- 11 - 9 = 2
- Tens: 8 (after borrowing) - 4 = 4
- Result: 42
---

- Ones: 3 < 9 → borrow 1
- 13 - 9 = 4

---
3. 77 - 68
- Ones: 7 < 8 → borrow 1

16. 88 - ? → Wait, no second number? Let's check...
Wait — the last row has:
- 88
- 41
- 73
- 67
- 81
But they are not paired with subtrahends. Looking back at the image layout:
Actually, it appears that the last row may be incomplete or misaligned. But based on the pattern, we have 15 problems already.
Wait — let’s count the boxes:
There are 3 rows of 5 boxes = 15 total.
We’ve done 15 problems.
Wait — let's recheck:
The first row: 5 problems
Second row: 5 problems
Third row: 5 problems
Total: 15
So the last row should be:
- 88 - ?
- 41 - ?
- 73 - ?
- 67 - ?
- 81 - ?
But these are missing subtrahends. That seems like an error.
Wait — perhaps I misread.
Looking again: The problem says “For the following subtraction equations” and shows:
Row 1: 91−49, 83−69, 77−68, 62−29, 93−59
Row 2: 74−38, 57−39, 75−49, 92−68, 71−59
Row 3: 52−37, 63−27, 75−49, 83−38, 92−56
Row 4: 88−?, 41−?, 73−?, 67−?, 81−?
Wait — this suggests the fourth row is missing subtrahends.
But looking at the original image description, it says "the first one is answered as an example", and then lists 15 boxes.
Wait — actually, there are only 15 boxes visible. Let's recount:
- Row 1: 5
- Row 2: 5
- Row 3: 5
- Total: 15
But in your description, you wrote:
> 88
> 41
> 73
> 67
> 81
But these are likely not subtraction problems unless they have subtrahends below.
Wait — maybe I made a mistake.
Let me re-express what you provided:
You said:
```
91 83 77 62 93
-49 -69 -68 -29 -59
74 57 75 92 71
-38 -39 -49 -68 -59
52 63 75 83 92
-37 -27 -49 -38 -56
88 41 73 67 81
```
Ah! The last row has no subtrahend, so those might be missing or perhaps it's a typo.
But looking at the image description, it says “Two-digit Subtraction With Regrouping”, and the format is consistent.
Wait — perhaps the last row is supposed to have subtrahends too, but they’re not shown.
Alternatively, maybe the last row is just placeholders or the problem ends at 92−56.
But you listed 88, 41, etc., at the end — possibly a formatting issue.
Wait — upon careful reading, the last row in your text is:
```
88 41 73 67 81
```
But no minus signs or subtrahends. So likely, these are not subtraction problems or they're incomplete.
But since the image is described as having “the first one is answered as an example”, and there are 15 boxes, and we’ve solved 15 problems above, perhaps the last row is meant to be:
- 88 − ?
- 41 − ?
- 73 − ?
- 67 − ?
- 81 − ?
But without subtrahends, we can't solve them.
Wait — perhaps you made a typo.
Alternatively, maybe the last row is:
- 88 − 59
- 41 − 27
- 73 − 48
- 67 − 39
- 81 − 56
But that’s speculation.
Wait — let’s look again at the original message.
You wrote:
> 88
> 41
> 73
> 67
> 81
No subtrahends.
But in the context, the previous ones all had subtrahends.
Possibility: You may have missed typing the subtrahends.
But since the image is not visible, and you described it, perhaps the last row is just the minuends, and the subtrahends are missing.
But in the initial list, you have:
- 91−49
- 83−69
- 77−68
- 62−29
- 93−59
- 74−38
- 57−39
- 75−49
- 92−68
- 71−59
- 52−37
- 63−27
- 75−49
- 83−38
- 92−56
That’s 15 problems.
Then you wrote:
> 88
> 41
> 73
> 67
> 81
These are likely extra, or perhaps they are meant to be the minuends for another set, but without subtrahends, we can’t proceed.
Alternatively, maybe the image includes more, but you didn't include them.
But based on the visible content, we’ll assume the first 15 are the intended problems.
So here are the answers:
---
| Problem | Answer |
|--------|--------|
| 91 - 49 | 42 |
| 83 - 69 | 14 |
| 77 - 68 | 9 |
| 62 - 29 | 33 |
| 93 - 59 | 34 |
| 74 - 38 | 36 |
| 57 - 39 | 18 |
| 75 - 49 | 26 |
| 92 - 68 | 24 |
| 71 - 59 | 12 |
| 52 - 37 | 15 |
| 63 - 27 | 36 |
| 75 - 49 | 26 |
| 83 - 38 | 45 |
| 92 - 56 | 36 |
Note: The last row (88, 41, etc.) lacks subtrahends, so cannot be solved.

When subtracting with regrouping:
1. Start from the ones place.
2. If the top digit is smaller than the bottom, borrow 1 from the tens place.
3. Decrease the tens digit by 1 and add 10 to the ones digit.
4. Subtract normally.
5. Move to the tens place and subtract.
This method ensures correct results even when borrowing is needed.
Let me know if you can provide the missing subtrahends for the last row!
