Explanation Given information: The expression is 654.9 − 56.67 _ . Use the below steps to subtract: Write the second number below the first number as the decimal places are lined up. Now, place the subtraction sign on the left of the second number. Now, subtract as whole numbers:- 654.9 − 56.67 _ Then, subtract the digits from the right to the left as whole numbers. Placing a zero to the right of the digits after the decimal in any number will not change any value. Now, insert one zero to the right of 9 in the first number so that the digits can be lined up neatly:- 654.90 − 56.67 _ Subtract the secondplace digits to the right of the decimal. Since 7 is larger than 0 , borrow 1 tens from the 9 tensand add it to 0 hundreds. Thus, 0 becomes 0 + 10 = 10 and 9 becomes 9 − 1 = 8 :- 654. 9 8 0 10 − 56. 6 7 _ Now, subtract 7 from 10 , that is: 10 − 7 = 3 :- 654. 9 8 0 10 − 56. 6 7 _ 3 Subtract 6 from 8 , that is: 8 − 6 = 2 . 654. 9 8 0 10 − 56. 6 7 _ 2 3 Now, place the decimal as in the other numbers:- 654. 9 8 0 10 − 56. 6 7 _ . 2 3 Subtract the number before the decimal. Since 6 is larger than 4 , borrow 1 ten from 5 tens and add it to 4 ones. Thus, 4 becomes 4 + 10 = 14 and 5 becomes 5 − 1 = 4 :- 6 5 4 4 14 . 9 8 0 10 − 5 6 . 6 7 _ . 2 3 Subtract 6 from 14 , that is: 14 − 6 = 8 :- 6 5 4 4 14 . 9 8 0 10 − 5 6 . 6 7 _ 8 . 2 3 Subtract the numbers before the decimal (tens place digits). Since 5 is larger than 4 , borrow 1 hundred from 6 and add it to 4 tens
