Question -2.

What number added to 0.805 gives 1?
Answer-2

The required number will be formed by subtracting 0.805 from 1
Required number = 1 – 0.805 = 1.000 – 0.805 = 0.195

Question- 3.

What must be subtracted from 3 to get 2.462?
Answer-3

The required number can be formed by subtracting 2.462 from 3
Required number = 3 – 2.462 = 3.000 – 2.462 = 0.538

Question -4.

By how much should 83.407 be decreased to get 27.78?
Answer-4

The required number can be formed by subtracting 27.78 from 83.407
