    true, false, true, false, true

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Lets start by saying that the real difference between 346 and 214 is 132:

    346-214 = 132

    So, lets see which of the statements are true:

    1) Siddarth lined up the place values correctly.

    Yes, correct. the values are lined up correctly when putted as:

    346

    -214

    It means 6 will be relate to 4, 4 to 1 and 3 to 2 from top to bottom. They are correctly lined up.

    2) False. As we show in the beginning, the result is 132 no 32.

    3) True. When we subtract we are looking for the difference between numbers.

    4) False. If done that, we will be subtracting 346 from 214. The way it was done is correct, subtracting 214 from 346 is 364 - 214, you are taking out 214 from 346.

    5) True. You can notice that the result got is 32, what means we forgot to subtract the hundreds. In the top number we have a 3 in hundred whereas in bottom number we have a 2, so that 3-2=1. This 1 is what we need to ad to our 32 to get 132. The correct is:

    346

    -214

    132
