Find the missing digits.
- U
- V
U259 - 34V5 = 4764(a)
In the hundreds place, 2 is less than 4.
So, there is regrouping in the thousands place.
U - 1 - 3 = 4
U = 4 + 3 + 1
U = 8
(b)
In the ones place, 9 is more than 5.
So, there is no regrouping in the tens place.
5 - V = 6
In the tens place, 6 is more than 5.
This means that there is a regrouping done in the hundreds place so that 15 can substract a certain number to get 6.
V = 15 - 6
V = 9
Answer(s): (a) 8; (b) 9
