Subtracting Decimals

Task description: On Tuesday we had to add decimals but today our teacher gave us something harder and she made us subtract decimals. This was quite a hard activity and made me think a lot but overall it was quite a fun activity. I really like when our teacher gives us something hard but it makes me think a lot. On the first page it was just some easy questions but on the 2nd page it got harder.My friend taught me a bit of how to do it and it actually helped me through the whole activity. I’m not sure if they are all right but hopefully they are or they are close to the actual answer and that’s all.
