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 |
3 | 1 | , | 4 | 2 | |
- | 2 | 6 | , | 7 | |
, |
Put zeros in the blank number places:
Place value | tens | ones | . | tenths | hundredths |
3 | 1 | , | 4 | 2 | |
- | 2 | 6 | , | 7 | 0 |
, |
2. Subtract the numbers using long subtraction method
Subtract the numbers in the hundredths column from the top number:
2-0=2
Place value | tens | ones | . | tenths | hundredths |
3 | 1 | , | 4 | 2 | |
- | 2 | 6 | , | 7 | 0 |
, | 2 |
Because the upper digit (4) in the tenths column is too small to get a positive difference, borrow 1 from the digit (1) in the next number place which becomes (0) and get (14).

Subtract the numbers in the tenths column from the top number:
14-7=7

3 | 1 | , | 4 | 2 | |
- | 2 | 6 | , | 7 | 0 |
, | 7 | 2 |
Because the upper digit (0) in the ones 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 (10).

, | 7 | 2 |
Subtract the numbers in the ones column from the top number:
10-6=4
Place value | tens | ones | . | tenths | hundredths |
2 | 10 | ||||
0 | 14 | ||||
3 | 1 | , | 4 | 2 | |
- | 2 | 6 | , | 7 | 0 |
4 | , | 7 | 2 |
Subtract the numbers in the tens column from the top number:
2-2=0
Place value | tens | ones | . | tenths | hundredths |
2 | 10 | ||||
0 | 14 | ||||
3 | 1 | , | 4 | 2 | |
- | 2 | 6 | , | 7 | 0 |
0 | 4 | , | 7 | 2 |
The solution is: 4,72
