| 7 | . | 9 | 4 | 7 | |
| - | 6 | . | 5 | 0 | 0 |
| . |
2. Subtract the numbers using long subtraction method
Subtract the numbers in the thousandths column from the top number:
7-0=7
| Place value | ones | . | tenths | hundredths | thousandths |
| 7 | . | 9 | 4 | 7 | |
| - | 6 | . | 5 | 0 | 0 |
| . | 7 |
Subtract the numbers in the hundredths column from the top number:
4-0=4
| Place value | ones | . | tenths | hundredths | thousandths |
| 7 | . | 9 | 4 | 7 | |
| - | 6 | . | 5 | 0 | 0 |
| . | 4 | 7 |
Subtract the numbers in the tenths column from the top number:
9-5=4
| Place value | ones | . | tenths | hundredths | thousandths |
| 7 | . | 9 | 4 | 7 | |
| - | 6 | . | 5 | 0 | 0 |
| . | 4 | 4 | 7 |
Subtract the numbers in the ones column from the top number:
7-6=1
| Place value | ones | . | tenths | hundredths | thousandths |
| 7 | . | 9 | 4 | 7 | |
| - | 6 | . | 5 | 0 | 0 |
| 1 | . | 4 | 4 | 7 |
