Soluzione - Long subtraction
2,75
Spiegazione passo passo
1. Rewrite the numbers from top to bottom, aligned by their place values
| Place value | ones | . | tenths | hundredths |
| 8 | , | 2 | 5 | |
| - | 5 | , | 5 | |
| , |
Put zeros in the blank number places:
| Place value | ones | . | tenths | hundredths |
| 8 | , | 2 | 5 | |
| - | 5 | , | 5 | 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 | ones | . | tenths | hundredths |
| 8 | , | 2 | 5 | |
| - | 5 | , | 5 | 0 |
| , | 5 |
Because the upper digit (2) in the tenths 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 (12).
| Place value | ones | . | tenths | hundredths |
| 7 | 12 | |||
| 8 | , | 2 | 5 | |
| - | 5 | , | 5 | 0 |
| , | 5 |
Subtract the numbers in the tenths column from the top number:
12-5=7
| Place value | ones | . | tenths | hundredths |
| 7 | 12 | |||
| 8 | , | 2 | 5 | |
| - | 5 | , | 5 | 0 |
| , | 7 | 5 |
Subtract the numbers in the ones column from the top number:
7-5=2
| Place value | ones | . | tenths | hundredths |
| 7 | 12 | |||
| 8 | , | 2 | 5 | |
| - | 5 | , | 5 | 0 |
| 2 | , | 7 | 5 |
The solution is: 2,75
