Spiegazione passo passo
1. Rewrite the numbers from top to bottom, aligned by their place values
| Place value | ones | . | tenths | hundredths | thousandths |
| 3 | , | 8 | 7 | 5 | |
| - | 2 | , | 7 | 9 | |
| , |
Put zeros in the blank number places:
| Place value | ones | . | tenths | hundredths | thousandths |
| 3 | , | 8 | 7 | 5 | |
| - | 2 | , | 7 | 9 | 0 |
| , |
2. Subtract the numbers using long subtraction method
Subtract the numbers in the thousandths column from the top number:
5-0=5
| Place value | ones | . | tenths | hundredths | thousandths |
| 3 | , | 8 | 7 | 5 | |
| - | 2 | , | 7 | 9 | 0 |
| , | 5 |
Because the upper digit (7) in the hundredths column is too small to get a positive difference, borrow 1 from the digit (8) in the next number place which becomes (7) and get (17).
| Place value | ones | . | tenths | hundredths | thousandths |
| 7 | 17 | ||||
| 3 | , | 8 | 7 | 5 | |
| - | 2 | , | 7 | 9 | 0 |
| , | 5 |
Subtract the numbers in the hundredths column from the top number:
17-9=8
| Place value | ones | . | tenths | hundredths | thousandths |
| 7 | 17 | ||||
| 3 | , | 8 | 7 | 5 | |
| - | 2 | , | 7 | 9 | 0 |
| , | 8 | 5 |
Subtract the numbers in the tenths column from the top number:
7-7=0
| Place value | ones | . | tenths | hundredths | thousandths |
| 7 | 17 | ||||
| 3 | , | 8 | 7 | 5 | |
| - | 2 | , | 7 | 9 | 0 |
| , | 0 | 8 | 5 |
Subtract the numbers in the ones column from the top number:
3-2=1
| Place value | ones | . | tenths | hundredths | thousandths |
| 7 | 17 | ||||
| 3 | , | 8 | 7 | 5 | |
| - | 2 | , | 7 | 9 | 0 |
| 1 | , | 0 | 8 | 5 |
The solution is: 1,085
