60 total fourth graders and 43 are girls. To find the number of boys, subtract.
60 - 43 = 17 boys
If 5 girls were absent, subtract.
43 - 5 = 38 girls present
If 4 boys were absent, subtract.
17 - 4 = 13 boys present
Therefore, there were 13 boys present.
Best of Luck!
Let's look at an example:
2.24 x 21.6

Do normal multiplication and get
48384 This is not correct, until we put the decimals in. To know how to do this, count the number of decimal spaces from the factors. In 2.24, there are 2, because .24. In 21.6 there are 1 because of .6. This mean three places, so 48384 becomes
48.384
