Friday and ending on Sunday. They drove 138 miles on Friday and 225 miles on

Saturday. How many miles did they drive on Sunday?

you add up 138+225 and you get 363 then you subtract 482-363 this is how you set it up:

   4  8  2

- 3  6  3

------------

you have to borrow because 3 does not go into 2 so you change the 8 into a 7 then you 10 to 2 and you get 12 so this is what it looks like:


     4   7   12

-    3   6   3

-------------------

 so you then subtract 12-3=9 then 7-6=1 then 4-3=1

so this is what it looks like

    4     7    12

--- 3    6     3

--------------------

    1     1     9

so on Sunday they rode 119 miles
