Put zeros in the blank number places:

Place value	ones	.	tenths	hundredths	thousandths	ten thousandths

	3	,	0	0	0	0
-	0	,	0	0	1	2
		,

Because the upper digit (0) in the ten thousandths column is too small to get a positive difference, borrow 1 from the number to the left (3.000) which becomes (2.999) and get (10).

Place value	ones	.	tenths	hundredths	thousandths	ten thousandths
	2		9	9	9	10
	3	,	0	0	0	0
-	0	,	0	0	1	2
		,

Subtract the numbers in the ten thousandths column from the top number:
10-0-2=8

Place value	ones	.	tenths	hundredths	thousandths	ten thousandths
	2		9	9	9	10
	3	,	0	0	0	0
-	0	,	0	0	1	2
		,				8

Subtract the numbers in the thousandths column from the top number:
9-1=8

Place value	ones	.	tenths	hundredths	thousandths	ten thousandths
	2		9	9	9	10
	3	,	0	0	0	0
-	0	,	0	0	1	2
		,			8	8

Subtract the numbers in the hundredths column from the top number:
9-0=9

Place value	ones	.	tenths	hundredths	thousandths	ten thousandths
	2		9	9	9	10
	3	,	0	0	0	0
-	0	,	0	0	1	2
		,		9	8	8

Subtract the numbers in the tenths column from the top number:
9-0=9

Place value	ones	.	tenths	hundredths	thousandths	ten thousandths
	2		9	9	9	10
	3	,	0	0	0	0
-	0	,	0	0	1	2
		,	9	9	8	8

Subtract the numbers in the ones column from the top number:
2-0=2

Place value	ones	.	tenths	hundredths	thousandths	ten thousandths
	2		9	9	9	10
	3	,	0	0	0	0
-	0	,	0	0	1	2
	2	,	9	9	8	8

The solution is: 2,9988
