Find the missing digits.
- V
- X
V814 - 46X1 = 1133(a)
In the hundreds place, 8 is more than 6.
So, there is no regrouping in the thousands place.
V - 4 = 1
V = 1 + 4
V = 5
(b)
In the ones place, 4 is more than 1.
So, there is no regrouping in the tens place.
1 - X = 3
In the tens place, 3 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 3.
X = 11 - 3
X = 8
Answer(s): (a) 5; (b) 8
