1. Rewrite the numbers from top to bottom, aligned by their place values
| Place value | ones | . | tenths | hundredths | thousandths |
| 4 | , | 6 | |||
| - | 2 | , | 9 | 3 | 4 |
| , |
Put zeros in the blank number places:
| Place value | ones | . | tenths | hundredths | thousandths |
| 4 | , | 6 | 0 | 0 | |
| - | 2 | , | 9 | 3 | 4 |
| , |
2. Subtract the numbers using long subtraction method
Because the upper digit (0) in the thousandths column is too small to get a positive difference, borrow 1 from the number to the left (60) which becomes (59) and get (10).
| Place value | ones | . | tenths | hundredths | thousandths |
| 5 | 9 | 10 | |||
| 4 | , | 6 | 0 | 0 | |
| - | 2 | , | 9 | 3 | 4 |
| , |
Subtract the numbers in the thousandths column from the top number:
10-0-4=6
| Place value | ones | . | tenths | hundredths | thousandths |
| 5 | 9 | 10 | |||
| 4 | , | 6 | 0 | 0 | |
| - | 2 | , | 9 | 3 | 4 |
| , | 6 |
Subtract the numbers in the hundredths column from the top number:
9-3=6
| Place value | ones | . | tenths | hundredths | thousandths |
| 5 | 9 | 10 | |||
| 4 | , | 6 | 0 | 0 | |
| - | 2 | , | 9 | 3 | 4 |
| , | 6 | 6 |
Because the upper digit (5) in the tenths column is too small to get a positive difference, borrow 1 from the digit (4) in the next number place which becomes (3) and get (15).
| Place value | ones | . | tenths | hundredths | thousandths |
| 3 | 15 | ||||
| 5 | 9 | 10 | |||
| 4 | , | 6 | 0 | 0 | |
| - | 2 | , | 9 | 3 | 4 |
| , | 6 | 6 |
Subtract the numbers in the tenths column from the top number:
15-9=6
| Place value | ones | . | tenths | hundredths | thousandths |
| 3 | 15 | ||||
| 5 | 9 | 10 | |||
| 4 | , | 6 | 0 | 0 | |
| - | 2 | , | 9 | 3 | 4 |
| , | 6 | 6 | 6 |
Subtract the numbers in the ones column from the top number:
3-2=1
| Place value | ones | . | tenths | hundredths | thousandths |
| 3 | 15 | ||||
| 5 | 9 | 10 | |||
| 4 | , | 6 | 0 | 0 | |
| - | 2 | , | 9 | 3 | 4 |
| 1 | , | 6 | 6 | 6 |
The solution is: 1,666
