| . | 2 | 5 |
Subtract the numbers in the tenths column from the top number:
9-6=3
| Place value | ones | . | tenths | hundredths | thousandths |
| 0 | . | 9 | 4 | 8 | |
| - | 0 | . | 6 | 2 | 3 |
| . | 3 | 2 | 5 |
Subtract the numbers in the ones column from the top number:
0-0=0
| Place value | ones | . | tenths | hundredths | thousandths |
| 0 | . | 9 | 4 | 8 | |
