2. Subtraction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subtraction

   Both these methods break up the subtraction as a process of one digit subtractions by place value. Starting with a least significant digit, a subtraction of the subtrahend: s j s j−1... s 1. from the minuend m k m k−1... m 1, where each s i and m i is a digit, proceeds by writing down m 1 − s 1, m 2 − s 2, and so forth, as long as s i ...

   Since we are adding 1 to the tens digit and subtracting one from the units digit, the sum of the digits should remain the same. For example, 9 + 2 = 11 with 1 + 1 = 2. When adding 9 to itself, we would thus expect the sum of the digits to be 9 as follows: 9 + 9 = 18, (1 + 8 = 9) and 9 + 9 + 9 = 27, (2 + 7 = 9).

   The sum of two numbers is unique; there is only one correct answer for a sums. [8] When the sum of a pair of digits results in a two-digit number, the "tens" digit is referred to as the "carry digit". [9] In elementary arithmetic, students typically learn to add whole numbers and may also learn about topics such as negative numbers and fractions.

5. Arithmetic - Wikipedia

   Counting is a type of repeated addition in which the number 1 is continuously added. [46] Subtraction is the inverse of addition. In it, one number, known as the subtrahend, is taken away from another, known as the minuend. The result of this operation is called the difference. The symbol of subtraction is . [47]

6. Carry (arithmetic) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carry_(arithmetic)

   The ten is moved from the next digit left, leaving in this example 3 − 1 in the tens column. According to this method, the term "borrow" is a misnomer , since the ten is never paid back. The ten is copied from the next digit left, and then 'paid back' by adding it to the subtrahend in the column from which it was 'borrowed', giving in this ...

   For example, through the standard addition algorithm, the sum can be obtained by following three rules: a) line up the digits of each addend by place value, longer digit addends should go on top, b) each addend can be decomposed -- ones are added with ones, tens are added with tens, and so on, and c) if the sum of the digits of the current place value is ten or greater, then the number must be ...
