To subtract 9 from 7, you would first need to understand that 7 is a smaller number than 9. In order to perform the subtraction, you would need to borrow from a higher place value. In this case, you would need to borrow 1 from the tens place, making it 6 tens and adding it to the ones place, making it 17. Then, you would subtract 9 from 17, resulting in 8. Therefore, 7 minus 9 equals -2.
