If you had to subtract 426 from 913, how many times would you need to regroup? How can you tell?

Asked by CollinZumbrunnen184

Answer (2)

Regrouping in subtraction means that if you can't subtract because the digit on the bottom has a greater value than the digit on the top (such as 3-6)m so in this case you would have to regroup twice.

To subtract 426 from 913, you would need to regroup twice. The first regrouping occurs when subtracting in the units place (3 - 6), and the second occurs in the tens place (0 - 2). After regrouping, the final answer is 487.
