The nines' complement of a decimal digit is the number that must be added to it to produce 9; the nines' complement of 3 is 6, the nines' complement of 7 is 2, and so on, see table. To form the nines' complement of a larger number, each digit is replaced by its nines' complement. Consider the following subtraction problem:
The n's complement of m is n - m. For example, the ten's complement of 7 is 3; the one's complement of 1/3 is 2/3, the hundred's complement of 28 is 72. It's true that the ten's complement of 7 is 3, and if you consider "28" a single digit in base 100, I suppose it's hundred's complement is "72".

Casting out nines is any of three arithmetical procedures: [1] Adding the decimal digits of a positive whole number, while optionally ignoring any 9s or digits which sum to 9 or a multiple of 9. The result of this procedure is a number which is smaller than the original whenever the original has more than one digit, leaves the same remainder as ...

"Two's complement is the most common method of representing signed (positive, negative, and zero) integers on computers, and more generally, fixed point binary values. Two's complement uses the binary digit with the greatest place value (ie the most significant bit) as the sign to indicate
The Curta was conceived by Curt Herzstark in the 1930s in Vienna, Austria.By 1938, he had filed a key patent, covering his complemented stepped drum. [3] [4] This single drum replaced the multiple drums, typically around 10 or so, of contemporary calculators, and it enabled not only addition, but subtraction through nines complement math, essentially subtracting by adding.
