What is the value of 16.43 – 1.043

Pls show the work of how you did it

15.387

Explanation:

16.43
- 1.043
————
15.387

Decimals are cool because you can add zeros to the end of them, and they will still be the same number.

16.43 = 16.430

I add the zero to the thousandths place because I am subtracting a number from 16.430 that has a number in the thousandths place. When you line the two numbers up to subtract you want to make sure they have an equal amount of decimal places.

1 6. 4 3 0 <— you now are ready to subtract.
- 1 . 0 4 3 I lined up the numbers in the
—————— ones, tenths, hundredths + Thousandths place. I drop the decimal point down.

Start from the rightmost digit.
You can’t subtract 3 from 0, so you borrow ten from the left.
3-1 =2. Cross out 3 and write 2 above it.
You add 10 to 0. 10+0=10. Cross out 0 and write 10 above it.
You can subtract 3 from 10 now. 10-3=7.

2 10
1 6. 4 3 0 You now have this.
- 1 . 0 4 3
——————
. 7

You can’t subtract 4 from 2, so you borrow from the left again.
4-1=3. Cross out 4 and write 3 above it. 2+10=12. Cross out 2 and write 12 above it.
12 - 4 = 8.
This is what that looks like:

12
3 2 10
1 6. 4 3 0 You now have this.
- 1 . 0 4 3
——————
. 8 7

3 - 0 = 3.
6 - 1= 5.
1 - 0 (as there is no digit in the tenths place) = 1

12
3 2 10
1 6. 4 3 0 You now have this.
- 1 . 0 4 3
——————
1 5. 3 8 7

So 16.43-1.043= 15.387

Think of it as five or above give it a shove. change the 5 or above to the right to a zero and add one to the number on the left.

Answer:

$4034.40

step-by-step explanation:

the perimeter of the field is the sum of the lengths of the four sides:

47 yd + 158 yd + 47 yd + 158 yd = 410 yd

the cost of 3 ft (1 yd) of fence is 3×$3.28 = $9.84.

so the cost of jake's wood perimeter fance is

(410 yd) × ($9.84 /yd) = $4034.40
