      • Tenths: 0.8\u22120.6=0.20.8 – 0.6 = 0.2<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Hundredths: 0.06\u22120.01=0.050.06 – 0.01 = 0.05<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n

          \n
        • 60+2+0.2+0.05=62.2560 + 2 + 0.2 + 0.05 = 62.25<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

          Explanation:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

          To find the result of 79.86\u221217.6179.86 – 17.61, we can use a place value strategy by breaking each number into its components. This method makes the subtraction easier by handling each place value separately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          First, we break down the number 79.86 into its place values:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            \n
          • 70<\/strong> (tens place)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • 9<\/strong> (ones place)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • 0.8<\/strong> (tenths place)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • 0.06<\/strong> (hundredths place)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

            Similarly, we break down 17.61 into:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              \n
            • 10<\/strong> (tens place)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • 7<\/strong> (ones place)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • 0.6<\/strong> (tenths place)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • 0.01<\/strong> (hundredths place)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

              Now, we subtract the corresponding place values:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                \n
              • Tens place:<\/strong> 70\u221210=6070 – 10 = 60<\/li>\n\n\n\n
              • Ones place:<\/strong> 9\u22127=29 – 7 = 2<\/li>\n\n\n\n
              • Tenths place:<\/strong> 0.8\u22120.6=0.20.8 – 0.6 = 0.2<\/li>\n\n\n\n
              • Hundredths place:<\/strong> 0.06\u22120.01=0.050.06 – 0.01 = 0.05<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

                After calculating each part, we add them together: 60+2+0.2+0.05=62.2560 + 2 + 0.2 + 0.05 = 62.25<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                So, the final answer to 79.86\u221217.6179.86 – 17.61 is 62.25<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                This method of breaking numbers into their place values is useful because it simplifies subtraction, particularly when dealing with decimals. It ensures accuracy and helps visualize the process clearly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                Now, I’ll generate an image representing this solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
