Example:
Find \(0.55 – 0.15\).
Here, \(0.65\) can be written as , and \(0.15\) can be written as .
- In the grid model first shade the region of \(0.55\) and cross out the regions \(0.15\), which means we are excluding \(0.15\) from the total shaded area.
- The left out shaded regions without the cross marks are the difference between \(0.55\) and \(0.15\).
- Therefore, the difference is \(0.55 – 0.15 = 0.40\)
Now let's see word problems to understand this concept clearly.
Example:
Riya's mother gave her \(₹ 5.50\) and she used this money to buy a pen. If the shopkeeper gave her \(₹ 1\) what was the pen's rate?
To find the pen's rate, subtract the total amount \(₹ 5.50\) with the returned amount \(₹ 1\).
That is, \(₹(5.50 – 1) = ₹ 4.50\). Therefore the cost of the pen is \(₹ 4.50\).
