Answer 2

Here your answer:

• We know that 8 and 008 or 0008 are equal, same as in after decimal points 8 and 800 or 8000 are equal.

• Therefore We can say that,

⇢ 16 - 4 = 16 - 04

⇢ x.83 - x.7 = x.83 - x.70

This is how we want to subtract:

$\\\huge{\:\:\:\:16.83}\\\huge{-\:\underline{04.70}} \\\huge{\: \: \: \:\underline{12.13}}$
