The difference of numbers with more than one digit can be found by subtracting each column from right to left, starting with the ones place.
Step 1: Write the second number under the first number so that the ones, tens, and hundreds places are lined up.
Step 3: Subtract the tens column (
7 - 0 = 7). Write the 7 in the tens place of the
difference.
Step 4: Subtract the hundreds column (7 - 4 = 3). Write the 3 in the hundreds place of the
difference.
