Find the missing digits.
- B
- C
B813 - 29C1 = 2882(a)
In the hundreds place, 8 is less than 9.
So, there is regrouping in the thousands place.
B - 1 - 2 = 2
B = 2 + 2 + 1
B = 5
(b)
In the ones place, 3 is more than 1.
So, there is no regrouping in the tens place.
1 - C = 8
In the tens place, 8 is more than 1.
This means that there is a regrouping done in the hundreds place so that 11 can substract a certain number to get 8.
C = 11 - 8
C = 3
Answer(s): (a) 5; (b) 3
