ok, first organize them according to the decimal place
OpenStudy (gabbyalicorn):
24.6−8.47
=24.6−8.47
=24.6+−8.47
=16.13

Why not count up? Find the distance between 8.47 and 9, then the distance between 9 and 24, and then the distance between 24 and 24.6. Once you have all of those add them together to get your answer.
