To determine if the value 3.12 makes the equation true, we can substitute it into the equation:
5.26 - 3.12 = ?
Now, calculate the left side:
5.26 - 3.12 = 2.14
Now compare that result to the right side of the equation:
2.14 ≠ 1.38
Since the left side does not equal the right side, the statement is **false**.
