Question

Without subtracting 8.5 - 4.64 determine what digit will be in the hundredths place

Answer 1

It will be a 6 because the 8.5 is actually 8.50. So when subtracting mentally 8.50 - 4.64 you know 0 - 4 cannot be subtracted. Barrow a 1 from the 5 and now it'll be like 10 - 4. Which 10 - 4 = 6

8.50
- 4.64
= 3.86
