IMPORTANT FACT ABOUT DECMAL SUBTRACTION

Some Important Fact About Subtraction

1) Any decimal number subtracts from itself or the same number gives zero ‘0’ as a result.

Example -  24.57 – 24.57 = 0,  5.78 – 5.78 = 0,  142.248 – 142.248 = 0

2)  If zero ‘0’ is subtracted from any decimal number then the result or answer must be the same decimal number itself.

Example-  (1) 25.55 – 0 = 25.55,  (2) 375.157 – 0 = 375.157,  (3) 18.45 – 0 = 18.45

3) If any decimal number is subtracted from zero ‘0’ , then the result should be the same given decimal number itself with a negative (-) symbol.

Example- (1)  0 – 2.37 = (-) 2.37,  (2)  0 – 45.85 = (-) 45.85,  (3)   0 – 35.357 = (-) 35.357
