Step-by-step solution

3 steps
  1. Identify the numbers and the operation.

    The problem is a subtraction of two decimal numbers: 265.00−69.82265.00 - 69.82.

  2. Align the numbers by their decimal points and perform the subtraction.

    We subtract column by column from right to left, borrowing when necessary.

    265.00−69.82\begin{array}{r} 265.00 \\ - \quad 69.82 \\ \hline \end{array}

    Starting from the rightmost digit:
    0−20 - 2: We need to borrow. The 0 in the hundredths place becomes 10. The 0 in the tenths place becomes 9. The 5 in the ones place becomes 4.
    10−2=810 - 2 = 8.

    Next column (tenths place):
    9−8=19 - 8 = 1.

    Place the decimal point.

    Next column (ones place):
    4−94 - 9: We need to borrow. The 4 becomes 14. The 6 in the tens place becomes 5.
    14−9=514 - 9 = 5.

    Next column (tens place):
    5−65 - 6: We need to borrow. The 5 becomes 15. The 2 in the hundreds place becomes 1.
    15−6=915 - 6 = 9.

    Next column (hundreds place):
    1−0=11 - 0 = 1.

  3. Combine the results to get the final answer.

    21615514.09010−069.82195.18\begin{array}{r} \overset{1}{\cancel{2}}\overset{15}{\cancel{6}}\overset{14}{\cancel{5}}.\overset{9}{\cancel{0}}\overset{10}{\cancel{0}} \\ - \quad 069.82 \\ \hline 195.18 \\ \end{array}

    The result of the subtraction is 195.18.
