    The nines' complement of a number given in decimal representation is formed by replacing each digit with nine minus that digit. To subtract a decimal number y (the subtrahend) from another number x (the minuend) two methods may be used: In the first method, the nines' complement of x is added to y. Then the nines' complement of the result ...

    The minuend is 704, the subtrahend is 512. The minuend digits are m 3 = 7, m 2 = 0 and m 1 = 4. The subtrahend digits are s 3 = 5, s 2 = 1 and s 1 = 2. Beginning at the one's place, 4 is not less than 2 so the difference 2 is written down in the result's one's place.

    Figure 1: Logic diagram for a half subtractor. The half subtractors can be designed through the combinational Boolean logic circuits [2] as shown in Figure 1 and 2. The half subtractor is a combinational circuit which is used to perform subtraction of two bits.

    It has the symbols I, V, X, L, C, D, M as its basic numerals to represent the numbers 1, 5, 10, 50, 100, 500, and 1000. [33] A numeral system is positional if the position of a basic numeral in a compound expression determines its value. Positional numeral systems have a radix that acts as a multiplicand of the different positions. For each ...

    For example 10 - 3 = 7, here - 3 in words minus 3 which means less 3. It means 3 is 'to be lessed'. It means 3 is the minuend by the meaning. Considering another example a boy is expected to be taken 10 marks. But he takes 7 marks, in other words the boy took '3 marks less'. This means '3 less' to 10. It means 3 is the number 'to be lessed'.

    Dividing 272 and 8, starting with the hundreds digit, 2 is not divisible by 8. Add 20 and 7 to get 27. The largest number that the divisor of 8 can be multiplied by without exceeding 27 is 3, so it is written under the tens column. Subtracting 24 (the product of 3 and 8) from 27 gives 3 as the remainder.

    1 47 − 19 ---- 28 Here, 7 − 9 = −2, so try (10 − 9) + 7 = 8, and the 10 is got by taking ("borrowing") 1 from the next digit to the left. There are two ways in which this is commonly taught: The ten is moved from the next digit left, leaving in this example 31 in the tens column.

    However, a binary number system with base −2 is also possible. The rightmost bit represents (−2) 0 = +1, the next bit represents (−2) 1 = −2, the next bit (−2) 2 = +4 and so on, with alternating sign. The numbers that can be represented with four bits are shown in the comparison table below.
