Five-Digit Minus Four-Digit

This worksheet provides students with practice subtracting 4-digit numbers from 5-digit numbers, many of which include strings of zeros. Students must borrow across zeros strategically and determine differences accurately. Each problem strengthens place value reasoning and the ability to break apart numbers for regrouping. By working through these problems, learners refine their multi-digit subtraction strategies and improve computational endurance. The layout is clean and supportive for students who need structured practice with advanced subtraction. This worksheet is excellent for reinforcing regrouping procedures and helping students master one of the most difficult subtraction scenarios.
