Evaluate. 47.3-0.883=

Aligning the numbers vertically: Align the numbers vertically by their decimal points for subtraction. We need to subtract 0.883 from 47.3. To do this, we write the numbers one under the other, making sure to align the decimal points: 47.3 - 0.883 We notice that 47.3 has only one decimal place, so we can add zeros to make the subtraction easier: 47.300 - 0.883 Subtracting the numbers: Subtract the numbers starting from the rightmost digit. We subtract each column, starting from the right. If necessary, we borrow from the next column to the left: 47.300 - 0.883 --------- 46.417 Writing down the final answer: Write down the final answer. After completing the subtraction, we find that the result is 46.417.
