Solution - Long subtraction
62
Step-by-step explanation
1. Rewrite the numbers from top to bottom, aligned by their place values
| Place value | tens | ones |
| 8 | 1 | |
| 6 | ||
| - | 1 | 3 |
2. Subtract the numbers using long subtraction method
Because the upper digit (1) in the ones column is too small to get a positive difference, borrow 1 from the digit (8) in the next number place which becomes (7) and get (11).
| Place value | tens | ones |
| 7 | 11 | |
| 8 | 1 | |
| 6 | ||
| - | 1 | 3 |
Subtract the numbers in the ones column from the top number:
11-6-3=2
| Place value | tens | ones |
| 7 | 11 | |
| 8 | 1 | |
| 6 | ||
| - | 1 | 3 |
| 2 |
Subtract the numbers in the tens column from the top number:
7-1=6
| Place value | tens | ones |
| 7 | 11 | |
| 8 | 1 | |
| 6 | ||
| - | 1 | 3 |
| 6 | 2 |
The solution is: 62
