For problems 1-5 rewrite them vertically in your notebook. Then solve the problems.

7.21 - 6.1

1 answer

To rewrite the problem vertically and solve it, we can set it up like this:

  7.21
- 6.10

Now, let's subtract step by step:

  1. Start from the rightmost column (hundredths place):

    • 1 (from 7.21) - 0 (from 6.10) = 1
  2. Move to the tenths place:

    • 2 (from 7.21) - 1 (from 6.10) = 1
  3. Move to the units place:

    • 7 (from 7.21) - 6 (from 6.10) = 1

Putting it all together, we have:

  7.21
- 6.10
-------
  1.11

Thus, the final answer is 1.11.
