Without subtracting 8.5 - 4.64, determine what digit will be in the hundredths place. explain

pronto

8.5 is the same as 8.50, right? So just take the digit in the hundredth place of both decimals and subtract. You'd be doing 0-4 so you can go ahead and borrow a number to make 10-4, which equals 6. So without subtracting 8.5 and 4.64, you can determine that 6 will be in the hundredth place. Hope this helps!
