    This document discusses two methods for adding and subtracting rational numbers expressed as decimals: 1) Expressing the decimals as fractions and adding or subtracting them as rational numbers, or 2) Aligning the decimal points and adding or subtracting the numbers as whole numbers. It then provides two word problems as examples, asking how much money Helen spent shopping after starting with P7500 and ending with P132.75, and how much money Ken, John and Hanna gathered altogether for a gift when they contributed P69.25, P56.25, and P56.25 respectively.

    of Rational Numbers in
    Decimal Form There are 2
    ways of adding or
    subtracting decimals.

    1. Express the decimal


    numbers in fractions then
    add or subtract as
    rational number.

    2. Arrange the decimal


    numbers in a column such
    that the decimal points
    are aligned, then add or
    subtract as with whole
    numbers.

    a. Helen had P7500 for


    shopping money. When she
    got home, she had P132.75
    in her pocket. How much
    did she spend for
