substract 13.03-4.96
13.02 _ 4.96 ------- 8.06 Can you explain to me, how to know where to place the descimals in the rigt place?
Can someone explain the placement of the position of the descimal?
You basically just line up the decimals...then fill in trailing 0's for any missing places that are required to do the vertical subtraction.
Hello, and thanks for responding. So did I do this one correctly?
Are you there?
I bounce around here...but yes, you got it right :)
can I ask you another ?
sure
3.72 x.32 ----- 744 1116 ----- 11.804
Does the descimal go where I have it placed?
oops! corrections....119.04
no its 1.1904
Hello, and thanks for responding.
So how do you kow how many places to count over to put the descimal point?
ummmmm.. ok! so you couted over 5 places
it all depends on many many places well..its hard to explain on yhur ? 3.72*.32 yhu count haw many numbers are behind the decimal and it equals 4
so for instance on 7.897* .8 yhu would multiply and count how many numbers are behind the decimals so look at the first one 7.897 there are three so count three and on the second there is onlu
there is only one so you count one add them up and yhu have four total behind the decimal so in the answer thats how many yhu cound to the left (: did that help??
let me show you htis one
13.02 -4.96 ------- 8.06

What's the different between a factor and a multiple?
uhmmm i honestly dont know...)= but all ik is that a factor well idk srry
