Soluzione - Long subtraction
Spiegazione passo passo
1. Rewrite the numbers from top to bottom, aligned by their place values
Place value | tens | ones | . | tenths | hundredths |
2 | 3 | , | 4 | 9 | |
- | 1 | 4 | , | 9 | |
, |
Put zeros in the blank number places:
Place value | tens | ones | . | tenths | hundredths |
2 | 3 | , | 4 | 9 | |
- | 1 | 4 | , | 9 | 0 |
, |
2. Subtract the numbers using long subtraction method
Subtract the numbers in the hundredths column from the top number:
9-0=9
Place value | tens | ones | . | tenths | hundredths |
2 | 3 | , | 4 | 9 | |
- | 1 | 4 | , | 9 | 0 |
, | 9 |
Because the upper digit (4) in the tenths column is too small to get a positive difference, borrow 1 from the digit (3) in the next number place which becomes (2) and get (14).

Subtract the numbers in the tenths column from the top number:
14-9=5

Because the upper digit (2) in the ones column is too small to get a positive difference, borrow 1 from the digit (2) in the next number place which becomes (1) and get (12).

, | 5 | 9 |
Subtract the numbers in the ones column from the top number:
12-4=8
Place value | tens | ones | . | tenths | hundredths |
1 | 12 | ||||
2 | 14 | ||||
2 | 3 | , | 4 | 9 | |
- | 1 | 4 | , | 9 | 0 |
8 | , | 5 | 9 |
Subtract the numbers in the tens column from the top number:
1-1=0
Place value | tens | ones | . | tenths | hundredths |
1 | 12 | ||||
2 | 14 | ||||
2 | 3 | , | 4 | 9 | |
- | 1 | 4 | , | 9 | 0 |
0 | 8 | , | 5 | 9 |
The solution is: 8,59
