Common Mistake #1:
• Not lining up your problems by place value.
Example: 6,781 6,781

Wrong 13,4781 Correct5,461
answer answer
• Line up the numbers involved NEATLY and CLEARLY

Example: 9,853 9,853
- 2,918 - 2,918
Wrong 7,145 Correct6,935
answer answer
• Do NOT flip-flop the bottom and top numbers—leave
them in order.
Common Mistake #3:
• Forgetting to reduce the number you borrow from.
Example: 964 964
- 418 - 418
556 546
Wrong Correct
answer answer
