    1) The partial differences method is used to solve subtraction problems by breaking the numbers into place values (hundreds, tens, ones) and subtracting them separately. 2) An example problem is provided to demonstrate the method: 642 - 379 is solved by subtracting the hundreds (600 - 300 = 300), tens (40 - 70 = -30) and ones (2 - 9 = -7) places separately and then adding the partial differences together (300 - 30 - 7 = 263). 3) Six practice problems are provided applying the partial differences method to solve multi-digit subtraction problems by separately subtracting the place values and combining the partial differences.

    Partial Differences

    Example: Solve 642 - 379 using partial differences method.

    642
    - 379
    Subtract the hundreds 600 – 300 = 300. Use a + sign because + 300
    The bottom number is smaller
    Subtract the tens 40 - 70 = 30. Use a ‘–‘sign because the top number - 30
    Is smaller
    Subtract the ones 2 - 9 = 7. Use a ‘-“ sign because the top number - 7
    Is smaller
    Add the partial differences 263

    Complete the following:

    1) 5 8 5 2) 8 0 3 3) 7 6 7 3
    - 476 - 265 - 4025
    500-400= + 1 0 0 800-200= +600 7000-4000= +3 0 0 0
    80-70= + 10 0-6= - 6 + 600
