Simplifying Calculations -2
To subtract a number from 100 or 1000 or 10000 or 100000 etc, we use the formula ' All from 9 and the last from 10".
Let us learn by an example:
Case 1: When the number to be subtracted has number of digits same as number of zeroes in other number.
Subtract 324708 from 1000000.
1000000
- 324708
_______________
675292
We start from left. Subtract each digit from 9 i.e. 9-3=6, 9-2=7, 9-4=5 and so on.
The last digit i.e. 8 has to be subtracted from 10.
Case 2: The number to be subtracted has less number of digits than number of zeroes in other number.
Subtract 596 from 100000.
100000
- 596
_________
First we will write two zeroes before 5 to make number of digits equal to number of zeroes in upper number. Here we go.
100000
- 00596
