Column Subtraction Without Borrow

Subtraction can be performed by drawing sticks equal to the first digit in the question and then crossing number of sticks equal to the second digit in question the remaining sticks give the result.

For example let us solve the question

 

In the figure below there is a bundle of 10 sticks representing the digit 1 at tens place in the number 14 and 4 sticks as the digit at ones place is 4

The second digit is 3 so we cross 3 sticks.

The remaining sticks is the answer which is 11.

So at tens position we will have 1 representing the bundle and at ones place we will have 1 that is the remaining sticks

Hence the answer is
