help for my boy what is 15 hundredths less than 6 tenths and how do you work it out?

Question

this is for my son,thanx for the help.

Answer 1

fifteen hundreds less than six tenths
= 6/10 -- 15/100
= 60/100 -- 15/100
= (60 -- 15)/100
= 45/100
= 0.45

Answer 2

First convert the tenths into hundredths by multiuplying by ten (there are ten hundredths in one tenth)
Then subtract the hundredths:
6 tenths = 60 hundredths
Subtract 15 hundreths 60 - 15 = 45
Therefore, 15 hundreths are 45 hundredths less than 6 tenths

Answer 3

It's always the same answer for maths. Write down what it says:

6/10 less 15/100
6/10 - 15/100
Multiply 6/10 by ten to get the same sort of fraction (This is the only tricky bit in adding and subtracting fractions)
60/100 - 15/100
0r
60 - 15
45/100

Answer 4

they got it wrong. x less than y, in word problems is translated as y-x. hence, the solution for the problem is
(a) 6/10 - 15/100
get the LCD of the denominators (10 & 100).The LCD is 100.
now, (a) can be written as
60/100 - 15/100.
subtracting the numerators, we have 45, then just copy the denominator(since the fractions are similar)
The answer is 45/100

Answer 5

0.6 - 0.15

or

6/10 - 15/100
60/100 - 15/100 (multiplied the numerator and denominator each by 10, to get the common denominator of 100)
45/100 (subtracted 15 from 60)

Answer 6

15/100 - 6/10=
15/100 - 60/100=
-45/100
or just forty five hundreths is your not using the whole negative thing.

Answer 7

step1.) 15 hundredths means 15/100=0.15 6 tenths means 6/10=0.6 0.6 bigger then 0.15 so 0.6-0.15=0.45 to know how to compere which number is bigger see what is ufter 0 0.6>0.5 0.66 > 0.56

Answer 8

the ans you got seem to be differ from what i got.

15000 - 60 = 14940

dun rely to much on mine.
