Question

Lester had 9.1 grams of pepper. Then he used 0.32 grams of the pepper to make some

scrambled eggs. How much pepper does Lester have left?

Answer 1

8.78.

Explanation:

For this question, we have to take away 9.1-0.32.

9.1 is the same as 9.10, so we will put it like that.

9.10

0.32

____

8.78

0 cant subtract by 2, so we have to take 1 from 9.10.

0 cant subtract by 3, so we have to take 1 from 9.

We subtract 10 by 3 which gives us the answer 7.

Thats how you get the answer 8.78.

Answer 2

8.78 grams

Explanation:

Subtract the two numbers from each other.

9.1-0.32=8.78 grams
