Step 1. Align their decimal places then do the subtraction.
Example 1: 1234.567-123.3
1234.567
-123.3
-------------
1111.267
If the minuend has lesser decimal places, add zeros after the last decimal point so that it will have the same decimal places as the subtrahend. Then do step 1.
Example 2: 1234.5 - 123.456
1234.500
-123.456
-------------
1111.044
