26
Explanation:

45 - 19 is calculated by subtracting 9 from 5 which gives 6 in the ones place, and then subtracting 1 from 4 which gives 3 in the tens place. Therefore, 45 - 19 = 26.

31. What is 63 - 27?

46
36
29
38
Explanation:

63 - 27 is calculated by subtracting 7 from 3 which is not possible in the ones place, hence we borrow 1 from the tens place making it 13 - 7 which is 6 in the ones place. Then subtract 2 from 6 which gives 4 in the tens place. Therefore, 63 - 27 = 36.

32. What is 84 - 49?

28
17
35
55
Explanation:

84 - 49 is calculated by subtracting 9 from 4 which is not possible in the ones place, hence we borrow 1 from the tens place making it 14 - 9 which is 5 in the ones place. Then subtract 4 from 7 which gives 3 in the tens place. Therefore, 84 - 49 = 35.

33. What is 72 - 38?

33
43
24
34
Explanation:

72 - 38 is calculated by subtracting 8 from 2 which is not possible in the ones place, hence we borrow 1 from the tens place making it 12 - 8 which is 4 in the ones place. Then subtract 3 from 7 which gives 4 in the tens place. Therefore, 72 - 38 = 34.

34. What is 99 - 62?

43
37
29
31
Explanation:

99 - 62 is calculated by subtracting 2 from 9 which gives 7 in the ones place, and then subtracting 6 from 9 which gives 3 in the tens place. Therefore, 99 - 62 = 37.

35. What is 56 - 18?

47
38

26
Explanation:

56 - 18 is calculated by subtracting 8 from 6 which is not possible in the ones place, hence we borrow 1 from the tens place making it 16 - 8 which is 8 in the ones place. Then subtract 1 from 5 which gives 4 in the tens place. Therefore, 56 - 18 = 38.

36. What is 75 - 42?

38
51
