Subtract with Borrowing and 0's is a Grade 4 mathematics worksheet that helps students solve subtraction problems requiring regrouping, including problems with zeros in the minuend. The 10 multiple-choice items range from two-digit subtraction, such as 52 − 9 and 65 − 48, to larger problems such as 803 − 458, 1,200 − 927, and 200 − 36. Students select the correct difference from several answer choices. This free printable worksheet gives students focused practice subtracting across place values and regrouping when a digit is zero. It is useful for independent practice, a math-center activity, review after direct instruction, or a quick check of subtraction fluency. The included answer key helps teachers review results efficiently and identify whether students need more support with place-value alignment or borrowing across zeros.

This Grade 4 worksheet covers subtracting two- to four-digit numbers with regrouping, including cases where students must borrow across one or more zeros. Its 10 multiple-choice problems, such as 803 − 458, 1,200 − 927, and 200 − 36, require students to calculate each difference and identify the correct answer from the choices.
First model place-value alignment and show how to regroup when the top digit is too small, including how to move across a zero to reach a place with a value to regroup. Then solve a problem such as 1,200 − 927 or 803 − 458 together, asking students to explain each regrouping step before they complete the multiple-choice items independently.
Students may subtract the smaller digit from the larger digit without regrouping, especially in problems such as 65 − 48 or 102 − 99. They may also fail to pass regrouped value through a zero in problems such as 803 − 458, 1,200 − 927, or 200 − 36, leading to incorrect differences.
You can assign this worksheet as a printable PDF or as a digital quiz on Wayground. It includes a complete answer key, and printable submissions can be graded by scanning student work with the Wayground for Teachers app. The printable version can also support schools that want to reduce screen time while students practise regrouping.
Use the worksheet’s Advanced Settings to adjust font spacing and font size so the subtraction columns and multiple-choice options are easier to read. You can also enable a dyslexia-friendly font or translate the worksheet into another language when those changes support access to the regrouping problems.
