Compare Two Subtraction Algorithms

The first steps of two algorithms are shown.

1
Question 5
5.

How are the steps different?

Question 7
7.

Use Algorithm B to find the value of 824 - 541.

Use an Algorithm?

Noah wanted to find the value of 301 - 167 and wrote:


Elena said that we can’t subtract this way because we would need more ones to subtract 7 ones, but there’s a zero in the tens place of 301.

Question 8
8.

Do you agree with Elena's statement? Explain your reasoning.
