General rules to subtract decimal numbers:

Step 1: Line up the decimal numbers one by one.

Step 2: Equalize the number of decimal places by adding zeros at the rightmost side of the decimal number.

Step 3: Start subtracting from the rightmost digit of the decimal number as the normal subtraction.

Step 4: Subtract both decimal part and whole number part.

Step 5: Finally, put a decimal point in the answer in the same place as the numbers above it.

Example:

Subtract \(94.56\) from \(156.60\).

\begin{array}{l} 156.6 0 \\ \underline{- 94.56} \\ 62.04 \end{array}

The answer is \(62.04\).

Example:

Find the difference between \(462.057\) and \(351.542\).

\begin{array}{l} 462.057 \\ \underline{- 351.542} \\ 111.515 \end{array}

Therefore, the difference between \(462.057\) and \(351.542\) is \(111.515\).
