Study Notes
Basic Subtraction Techniques
- Borrowing: Required when a digit in the top number is smaller than the corresponding digit in the bottom number. A value of 10 is borrowed from the next higher place value to increase the top digit.
- Column Subtraction: A method aligning numbers vertically by place value to perform subtraction, starting with the ones place.
- Trading or regrouping: An alternative term for borrowing in subtraction.
Number Line Representation of Subtraction
- A number line is a visual tool.
- Subtraction can be depicted by starting at a point on the number line and moving to the left (decreasing) by the value being subtracted.
- The result is the new location on the number line, representing the difference.
- Example: 5 - 2. Start at 5 on the number line, move 2 units left. The new point is 3, so 5 - 2 = 3.
Mathematical Properties in Subtraction
- Commutative Property: Does not apply to subtraction; a - b ≠ b - a (e.g., 5 - 2 ≠ 2 - 5).
- Associative Property: Does not apply to subtraction; (a - b) - c ≠ a - (b - c) (e.g., (10 - 7) - 2 ≠ 10 - (7 - 2)).
- Additive Identity: Adding zero to a number does not change its value; a - 0 = a.
- Subtraction of Zero: Subtracting zero from a number does not change its value; a - 0 = a.
- Inverse Operations: Subtraction is the inverse operation of addition; if a - b = c, then a = b + c.
Negative Numbers in Subtraction
- Negative Numbers in Subtraction: Subtraction with negative numbers may involve borrowing across the zero point of the number line.
-
Rules for Negative Numbers in Subtraction:
- Subtracting a positive number is the same as adding a negative.
- Subtracting a negative number is the same as adding a positive.
-
Examples:
- 5 - (-3) = 5 + 3 = 8
- -2 - 4 = -2 + (-4) = -6
- -7 - (-1) = -7 + 1 = -6
- Important Note: Subtraction with negative numbers requires careful consideration of the signs, maintaining the order of operations.
