| . | 9 | 5 |
Subtract the numbers in the ones column from the top number:
4-0=4
| Place value | tens | ones | . | tenths | hundredths |
| 1 | 4 | . | 9 | 9 | |
| - | 1 | 0 | . | 0 | 4 |
| 4 | . | 9 | 5 |
Subtract the numbers in the tens column from the top number:
1-1=0
| Place value | tens | ones | . | tenths | hundredths |
| 1 | 4 | . | 9 | 9 | |
