Examples with solutions for Addition and Subtraction of Decimal Fractions: Complete with 0

Exercise #1

Circle the correct answer to the following exercise:

111.25+112.3

Video Solution

Step-by-Step Solution

To avoid confusion in solving the exercise, we will first add the digit 0 to the number 112.3 as follows:

111.25+112.30 111.25\\+112.30\\

Now let's solve the exercise in order:

We'll combine the hundredths after the decimal point:

5+0=5 5+0=5

We'll combine the tenths after the decimal point:

2+3=5 2+3=5

Finally, we'll combine the whole numbers before the decimal point accordingly:

1+2=3 1+2=3

1+1=2 1+1=2

1+1=2 1+1=2

And we get:

111.25+112.30223.55 111.25\\+112.30\\223.55

Answer

We'll add the hundredths after the decimal point:

0+2=2 0+2=2

We'll add the tenths after the decimal point:

4+2=6 4+2=6

Finally, we'll add the whole numbers before the decimal point:

5+3=8 5+3=8

And we get:

5.40+3.228.62 5.40\\+3.22\\8.62

Answer

Exercise #4

Circle the correct answer to the following exercise:33.23-30.1

Video Solution

Step-by-Step Solution

To avoid confusion in solving the exercise, we will first add the digit 0 to the number 30.1 as follows:

33.2330.10 33.23\\-30.10\\

Now let's solve the exercise in order:

We'll subtract the hundredths after the decimal point:

30=3 3-0=3

We'll subtract the tenths after the decimal point:

21=1 2-1=1

Finally, we'll subtract the whole numbers before the decimal point accordingly:

30=3 3-0=3

33=0 3-3=0

And we get:

33.2330.1003.13 33.23\\-30.10\\03.13
