For this case, the first thing we must do is rewrite the given expression.
We must take into account the following numerical factor.
\(tenths = 0.1
\)
Therefore, we have:
\(16 tenths = 16 (0.1)
16 tenths = 1.6
\)
So, rewriting the given expression we have:
\(5 - 1.6 = 3.4
\)
Answer:
The result of 5-16 tenths is:
\(3.4\)
