Solution - Long subtraction
155
Step-by-step explanation
1. Rewrite the numbers from top to bottom, aligned by their place values
Place value | hundreds | tens | ones |
3 | 6 | 0 | |
- | 2 | 0 | 5 |
2. Subtract the numbers using long subtraction method
Because the upper digit (0) in the ones column is too small to get a positive difference, borrow 1 from the digit (6) in the next number place which becomes (5) and get (10).
Place value | hundreds | tens | ones |
5 | 10 | ||
3 | 6 | 0 | |
- | 2 | 0 | 5 |
Subtract the numbers in the ones column from the top number:
10-5=5
Place value | hundreds | tens | ones |
5 | 10 | ||
3 | 6 | 0 | |
- | 2 | 0 | 5 |
5 |
Subtract the numbers in the tens column from the top number:
5-0=5
Place value | hundreds | tens | ones |
5 | 10 | ||
3 | 6 | 0 | |
- | 2 | 0 | 5 |
5 | 5 |
Subtract the numbers in the hundreds column from the top number:
3-2=1
Place value | hundreds | tens | ones |
5 | 10 | ||
3 | 6 | 0 | |
- | 2 | 0 | 5 |
1 | 5 | 5 |
The solution is: 155
