Let's do subtraction by first starting with the ones place and then the tenths place of the subtrahend.
45-4=41; 44, 43, 42, 41
41-.5= 40.5; 40.9, 40.8, 40.7, 40.6, 40.5
45-4.5=40.5
We can check by using addition.
40.5+4.5=
44+1=
45
Answer:
The answer is 
Step-by-step explanation:
when writing scientific notation, there must be one number to the left of the decimal point.
To achieve this in this problem, you need to move the decimal point 3 times to the right.
because you are moving the point to the right, the exponent will be negative.
*rule of thumb: moving the decimal to the left will give you a positive exponent, moving to the right will give you a negative exponent*
therefore you answer should be written as:
