Question

using 10's complement subtracting 3250 from 72532 is equal to

Answer 1

Answer:

69282

Step-by-step explanation:

Using 10’s complement, subtract 72532 - 3250.

M = 72532

10>s complement of N = + 96750

Sum = 169282

Discard end carry 105 = - 100000

Answer = 69282

Note that M has five digits and N has only four digits. Both numbers must have the same

number of digits, so we write N as 03250. Taking the 10’s complement of N produces a

9 in the most significant position. The occurrence of the end carry signifies that M Ú N

and that the result is therefore positive.
