What will the value of the following be (correct to three decimal points)? $160.342 - 32.124$
The problem requires calculating the precise value of the expression \(160.342 - 32.124\) and checking against the given options to identify the correct answer.
- Start by aligning the numbers for subtraction:
| 160.342 |
| - 32.124 |
| ______ |
- Subtract columns starting from the rightmost (hundredths place):
- 2 - 4: Since you cannot subtract 4 from 2, borrow 1 from the tenths place:
- 12 (after borrowing) - 4 = 8
- Tenths place adjustment: 3 becomes 2 (after borrowing), so 2 - 2 = 0
- Ones place: 0 - 1; Borrow from the tens place (5 becomes 4):
- 10 - 1 = 9
- Tens place: 4 - 2 = 2
- Hundreds place: 6 - 3 = 3
- Thousands place: 1 - 0 = 1
- 2 - 4: Since you cannot subtract 4 from 2, borrow 1 from the tenths place:
- The result of the subtraction is:
| 128.218 |
- Verify by checking against the provided options to find an exact match. The correct answer is \(128.218\), which matches the given correct option.
Hence, the answer is 128.218.
