Advertisements
Solution 1
2362 – 632 = 1720
2362 – 632 = 1720
2 – 5 = 10
2 = 10 + 5
2 = 1 + 5
2 = 5
2 = 2
Solution 2
Step 1: Calculate the digit sums (casting out nines)
Add the digits:
For 2362: 2 + 3 + 6 + 2 = 13 and 1 + 3 = 4 (digit sum)
For 632: 6 + 3 + 2 = 11 and 1 + 1 = 2 (digit sum)
For 1720: 1 + 7 + 2 + 0 = 10 and 1 + 0 = 1 (digit sum)
Step 2: Subtract the digit sums
4 − 2 = 2
Step 3: Compare with the digit sum of 1720
The digit sum of 1720 is 1, which does not match the expected digit sum (2).
he subtraction fact 2362 − 632 = 1720 is incorrect based on casting out nines.

Look at the calendar below.
Let us mark 3 × 3 boxes (9 dates) on the calendar and see some magic.

| Take the smallest number | 3 |
| Add 8 to it | +8 |
| = | 11 |
| Multiply it by 9 | ×9 |
| Total | 99 |
Now you choose any 3 × 3 boxes from a calendar and find the total in the same way.
Now try doing it with some other number and also take a different number to add at each step.
