The problem
94 - 58 is 36, not 44 or 46
Subtracting with borrowing is where many second graders get stuck. The smaller-from-larger shortcut gives plausible answers that are wrong.
Subtracting the smaller from the larger
In 94 - 58, a child does 8 - 4 for the ones and gets 4. The 4 is on top, so we must borrow.
Borrowing but not reducing
After taking a ten, the tens digit goes down by one. Leaving the 9 as 9 gives 46.
A zero in the ones place
50 - 36 has a zero in the ones place. A child cannot take 6 from 0 without borrowing.
The answer choices include the smaller-from-larger answer and the forgot-to-reduce answer. Children borrow when the top digit is too small, then add back to check.

Subtract two-digit numbers with borrowing
Borrow a ten when the top ones digit is too small.
- 50 − 36 = 14
- 94 − 58 = 36
- 71 − 55 = 16
- 95 − 68 = 27
- 50 − 46 = 4
- 93 − 46 = 47
- 52 − 44 = 8
Who it’s for
Built for the kitchen table and the classroom.
Parents & homeschool

Questions
Before you buy.
How can children check?
Add the answer to the number taken away. It should give the starting number.
Does every problem borrow?
Most do, so children learn to check each column.
How do I get the file?

Can I print it more than once?
Yes. One teacher or one household can print unlimited copies for their own students, this year and next.
Will it print in color?
The pages are designed to print in black and white, so they print clean on any home or school printer and do not eat a cartridge.
