3,25
Spiegazione passo passo
1. Rewrite the numbers from top to bottom, aligned by their place values
| Place value | tens | ones | . | tenths | hundredths |
| 7 | 2 | , | 2 | 5 | |
| - | 6 | 9 | |||
| , |
Put zeros in the blank number places:
| Place value | tens | ones | . | tenths | hundredths |
| 7 | 2 | , | 2 | 5 | |
| - | 6 | 9 | , | 0 | 0 |
| , |
2. Subtract the numbers using long subtraction method
Subtract the numbers in the hundredths column from the top number:
5-0=5
| Place value | tens | ones | . | tenths | hundredths |
| 7 | 2 | , | 2 | 5 | |
| - | 6 | 9 | , | 0 | 0 |
| , | 5 |
Subtract the numbers in the tenths column from the top number:
2-0=2
| Place value | tens | ones | . | tenths | hundredths |
| 7 | 2 | , | 2 | 5 | |
| - | 6 | 9 | , | 0 | 0 |
| , | 2 | 5 |
Because the upper digit (2) in the ones column is too small to get a positive difference, borrow 1 from the digit (7) in the next number place which becomes (6) and get (12).
| Place value | tens | ones | . | tenths | hundredths |
| 6 | 12 | ||||
| 7 | 2 | , | 2 | 5 | |
| - | 6 | 9 | , | 0 | 0 |
| , | 2 | 5 |
Subtract the numbers in the ones column from the top number:
12-9=3
| Place value | tens | ones | . | tenths | hundredths |
| 6 | 12 | ||||
| 7 | 2 | , | 2 | 5 | |
| - | 6 | 9 | , | 0 | 0 |
| 3 | , | 2 | 5 |
Subtract the numbers in the tens column from the top number:
6-6=0
| Place value | tens | ones | . | tenths | hundredths |
| 6 | 12 | ||||
| 7 | 2 | , | 2 | 5 | |
| - | 6 | 9 | , | 0 | 0 |
| 0 | 3 | , | 2 | 5 |
The solution is: 3,25
