We have learned to subtract one-digit numbers. Let us now learn to
subtract two digit numbers:

Step 1: Write the numbers in column form.

Step 2: Write the numbers in expanded form.

Step 3: Subtract ones and then tens.

Let us subtract 23 from 47

T O

4 7 = 4 tens and 7 ones

– 2 3 = 2 tens and 3 ones

2 tens and 4 ones = 24

Let us subtract 43 from 97

T O

9 7 = 9 tens and 7 ones

– 4 3 = 4 tens and 3 ones

5 tens and 4 ones = 54

Let us subtract 35 from 66

T O

6 6 = 6 tens and 6 ones

– 3 5 = 3 tens and 5 ones

3 tens and 1 one = 31
