1. Find subtraction of `(630)_8` and `(205)_8`

Solution:

Solution is
28
630
-205

423


Step by step solution :

Step by step solution :
630
-205


Step-1 : 0 - 5
Here 0 `<` 5, we take borrow from 3
So 3 becomes 2 and 0 becomes 0+8=8
`=8-5`
`=3_8`

28
630
-205

3

Step-2 : 2 - 0
Here 2 `>` 0, so directly subtract it
`=2-0`
`=2_8`

28
630
-205

23

Step-3 : 6 - 2
Here 6 `>` 2, so directly subtract it
`=6-2`
`=4_8`

28
630
-205

2. Find subtraction of `(321)_8` and `(47)_8`

Solution:

Solution is
9
219
321
-047

252


Step by step solution :

Step by step solution :
321
-047


Step-1 : 1 - 7
Here 1 `<` 7, we take borrow from 2
So 2 becomes 1 and 1 becomes 1+8=9
`=9-7`
`=2_8`

19
321
-047

2

Step-2 : 1 - 4
Here 1 `<` 4, we take borrow from 3
So 3 becomes 2 and 1 becomes 1+8=9
`=9-4`
`=5_8`

9
219
321
-047

52

Step-3 : 2 - 0
Here 2 `>` 0, so directly subtract it
`=2-0`
`=2_8`

9

3. Find subtraction of `(25430)_8` and `(4077)_8`

Solution:

Solution is
10
328
25430
-04077

21331


Step by step solution :

Step by step solution :
25430
-04077


Step-1 : 0 - 7
Here 0 `<` 7, we take borrow from 3
So 3 becomes 2 and 0 becomes 0+8=8
`=8-7`
`=1_8`

28
25430
-04077

1

Step-2 : 2 - 7
Here 2 `<` 7, we take borrow from 4
So 4 becomes 3 and 2 becomes 2+8=10
`=10-7`
`=3_8`

10
328
25430
-04077

31

Step-3 : 3 - 0
Here 3 `>` 0, so directly subtract it
`=3-0`
`=3_8`

10
328
25430
-04077

331

Step-4 : 5 - 4
Here 5 `>` 4, so directly subtract it
`=5-4`
`=1_8`

10
328
25430
-04077

1331

Step-5 : 2 - 0
Here 2 `>` 0, so directly subtract it
`=2-0`
`=2_8`

10
328
25430
-04077
