It is smaller than but if it was rounded to 1 decimal point then it would become 0.9
Suppose you have two decimal numbers, A and B. If A - B > 0 then A is the bigger decimal, if A - B < 0 then B is the bigger decimal and if A - B = 0, neither is bigger.
My teacher taught us to subtract with decimal numbers.
You can either convert the decimal to a fraction and then subtract (3/4 - 0.5 = 3/4 - 2/4 = 1/4), OR you can convert the fraction to a decimal and then subtract (3/4 - 0.5 = 0.75 - 0.5 = 0.25).
It means the answer will be negative. (Because you're taking away more than you're starting with.) Go ahead and subtract the smaller number from the bigger one, and then make the result negative.
if you want to subtract a bigger number from a smaller one, first subtract smaller number from bigger one add negative sign in front of answer you got
You can subtract the bigger fraction by the smaller fraction and then put a minus sign in front of the answer.
You don't
You record the temperatures as decimal numbers and subtract the smaller from the larger.
If you want to subtract a smaller number from a bigger number then just subtract. For example: 14 - 12 = 2 and etc. (more but it is going to be too long) 15 - 13 = 2 16 - 14 = 2
The decimal would go left. For example: 18.0: Smaller: 1.8 Bigger: 180
Subtract the smaller number from the bigger number.
7.5 is bigger than 5.77 but .5 is smaller than .77 so 5.77 has the bigger decimal than 7.5
you subtract by lining your numbers and start from the ones place and continue going to the left

No a decimal is smaller than a whole number.
(A) Add them together.(B) Subtract the smaller from the larger.
