Example Question #141 : Fluently Add, Subtract, Multiply, And Divide Multi Digit Decimals: Ccss.Math.Content.6.Ns.B.3
Elliot bought coffee drinks from a famous coffee shop. The first two drinks cost him and he paid a total of . How much did the third drink cost?
To find the cost of the third drink, you must subtract the total cost by the cost of the two drinks.
Example Question #1 : Subtracting Multi Digit Decimals
We first subtract the hundredths place:
Then the tenths place: Since is less than , we have to borrow from the , the becomes a and the becomes :
Then the ones place:
So the final answer is .
Example Question #2 : Subtracting Multi Digit Decimals
We first subtract the hundredths place:
Then the tenths place: Since is less than , we have to borrow from the , the becomes a and the becomes :
Then the ones place: , since the is less than , we have to borrow from the , the becomes is the tens place, and the becomes in the ones place:
So the final answer is .

Example Question #4 : Subtracting Multi Digit Decimals
The above is a menu at the concession stand at a drive-in movie. The stand also offers a special "Meal Deal": a hamburger or a hot dog, a medium order of fries, and a medium soda for .
Randy orders two Meal Deals - a hamburger Meal Deal for himself and a hot dog Meal Deal for his friend Denise. How much more would he have paid for the items separately?
(Ignore tax)
The two Meal Deals cost .
Purchased separately, the hamburger would have cost $4.89; the hot dog, $4.39; each of the two medium orders of fries, $2.79; and each of the two medium sodas, $1.69. The total price of the items, purchased separately, would have been
The difference between this and the $16 paid for the food is
Example Question #1 : Subtracting Multi Digit Decimals
Shawn bought two coats at the jacket store for . He returned one of the two coats the next day and received back on his credit card. How much did the other coat cost?
In order to find the cost of the coat that Shawn kept you must subtract the amount of money that went back on his credit card from the total that he spent on the two coats.
Example Question #1 : Find Greatest Common Factor
Use the distributive property to express the sum as the multiple of a sum of two whole numbers with no common factor.
None of these
The distributive property can be used to rewrite an expression. When we use this property we will identify and pull out the greatest common factor of each of the addends. Then we can create a quantity that represents the sum of two whole numbers with no common factor multiplied by their greatest common factor.
In this case, the greatest common factor shared by each number is:
After we reduce each addend by the greatest common factor we can rewrite the expression:
