Question

what should be subtracted from 0.1 to get 0.06

Answer 1

Answer:

0.04

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Decimals 0.1 and 0.06.

To Find,

The difference between them.

So,

The decimal which should be subtracted from 0.1 to get 0.06 can be obtained by subtracting 0.06 from 0.1.

Converting the given decimals into like decimals, we have 0.10 and 0.06.

Now,

 0 . 1  0

- 0 . 0 6

________

 0 . 0  4

∴ Required decimal = 0.1 − 0.06 = 0.04

Hence, the correct answer is 0.04.

Answer 2

Answer:

0.04  should be subtracted from 0.1 to get 0.06.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be "x"

Given,

The two numbers "0.1" and "0.06"

To find,

The number that should be subtracted from 0.1 to get 0.06

i.e. 0.1 - x = 0.06.....(1)

We try to solve equation (1)

0.1 - x = 0.06

0.1 - 0.06 - x = 0 (Bringing 0.06 from the R.H.S to the L.H.S)

0.1 - 0.06 = x (As we are wishing to find x )

0.10 - 0.06 = x

We get:

x = 0.04

Therefore, 0.04 should be subtracted from the number 0.1 so that we get 0.06.
