This video tutorial explains the standard method for subtracting numbers by arranging them vertically and aligning digits according to their place value. It demonstrates the subtraction process step-by-step, starting from the rightmost digit and moving left, ensuring digits of the same place value are subtracted. The tutorial concludes with the final result of the subtraction problem.

What is the first step in the standard method of subtraction?

• From left to right

• From right to left

• From top to bottom

• From bottom to top

What do you do if the second number has fewer digits than the first number in a subtraction problem?

• Ignore the missing digits

• Add zeros to the second number

• Copy the remaining digits from the first number

• Subtract the missing digits as zero
