Question 392707
45.6-8.75
<pre><font face = "batangche" color = "indigo" size = 4><b>
Line up the decimal points: 

   45.6
   <u>-8.75</u>

Stick on a <font color = "red">0</font> at the end of the top number so it will
stick as far to the right as the bottom number:

   45.6<font color = "red">0</font>
   <u>-8.75</u>
   38.85

I didn't go into the details of how to borrow from the 6
making the 0 into a 10, etc.  If we need to do that, post 
again asking how.
