Subtraction | Place Value

We were learning about subtraction using place value. Subtraction is taking or subtracting an amount of something from another thing.

One of the problems I solved was:

227 - 163 = ?

163 = 100 + 60 + 3
First I split the number one hundred twenty seven.

227 - 3 = 22
When subtracting always start from the ones.

224 - 60 = 164
After that I took away the tens.

164 - 100 = 64
Finally I took away the hundreds.

I think using place value for subtraction is helpful because it helps me understand the equations easier.
