Mathematics 6 Quarter 1 Module 6: Subtracting Decimals and Mixed Decimals Through Ten Thousandths

This is the Grade 6 Mathematics self-learning module for Quarter 1, Module 6: “Subtracting Decimals and Mixed Decimals Through Ten Thousandths.” It is an Alternative Delivery Mode module from DepEd Region VI, First Edition 2020, made for learners studying at home or in class. After it, learners can subtract decimals with and without regrouping and use subtraction to solve word problems.

What learners will learn

After going through this module, learners are expected to:

  1. subtract decimals and mixed decimals through ten thousandths without regrouping (M6NS-Id-106.2);
  2. subtract decimals and mixed decimals through ten thousandths with regrouping (M6NS-Id-106.2); and
  3. solve one-step or multi-step routine and non-routine problems involving addition and/or subtraction of decimals and mixed decimals using appropriate problem-solving strategies and tools (M6NS-Id-108.2).

Lessons in this module

  • Lesson 1: Subtracting Decimals and Mixed Decimals through Ten Thousandths without Regrouping. Learners line up decimal points and subtract place by place, where every digit on top is big enough to subtract from.
  • Lesson 2: Subtracting Decimals and Mixed Decimals through Ten Thousandths with Regrouping. Learners subtract when they need to borrow from the next place. They also solve word problems with a four-step method and the block model strategy.

Subtracting decimals step by step

Both lessons use the same rule. When two decimals are subtracted:

  • align the decimal points in a straight column;
  • use 0 as a placeholder if needed;
  • subtract just like whole numbers, regrouping if necessary;
  • place a decimal point in the difference; and
  • align that decimal point with the decimal points in the minuend (the top number) and the subtrahend (the number being taken away).

Without regrouping (Lesson 1)

Lesson 1 starts with Joyce. She walks 2.6793 kilometers from home to school, but first stops at her aunt’s house, 1.3201 kilometers from home. How far is it from her aunt’s house to school? The module subtracts from right to left:

PlaceSubtraction
Ten thousandths3 – 1 = 2
Thousandths9 – 0 = 9
Hundredths7 – 2 = 5
Tenths6 – 3 = 3
Ones2 – 1 = 1

So 2.6793 – 1.3201 = 1.3592, and Joyce walks 1.3592 kilometers.

With regrouping (Lesson 2)

Lesson 2 starts with Jacob, who buys shoes for ₱245.78 and pays with ₱250.00. Learners write the numbers in a column and fill empty places with zeros. Then they subtract from right to left, starting with the hundredths, then tenths, then ones, tens, and hundreds. They regroup (borrow) when the top digit is smaller. The answer is ₱250.00 – ₱245.78 = ₱4.22, so Jacob’s change is ₱4.22.

Solving word problems

Lesson 2 teaches four steps for word problems:

  1. Understand: What is asked, and what facts are given?
  2. Plan: Which operation will you use, and what is the number sentence?
  3. Solve: Line up the decimal points and compute.
  4. Check: Test the answer, for example by adding it back.

In the first example, Mrs. Aligado has ₱2 457.95 and spends ₱1 236.05 on food. The number sentence is ₱2 457.95 – ₱1 236.05 = N, so she has ₱1 221.90 left. To check, ₱1 236.05 + ₱1 221.90 = ₱2 457.95.

The second example uses the block model strategy. Apples and grapes cost ₱235.50 together, and the grapes cost ₱93.50 more than the apples. The apples are one block, and the grapes are one block plus ₱93.50:

  • Take away the extra amount: ₱235.50 – ₱93.50 = ₱142.00 for two equal blocks.
  • Divide: ₱142.00 ÷ 2 = ₱71.00 for one block, the cost of the apples.
  • Add: ₱71.00 + ₱93.50 = ₱164.50, the cost of the grapes.

The check confirms it: ₱164.50 + ₱71.00 = ₱235.50, and ₱164.50 – ₱71.00 = ₱93.50.

How to use this module

Each lesson follows the same order. It starts with a pretest (What I Know), then a short review (What’s In) and a new problem (What’s New). Next come the discussion (What is It), practice (What’s More), and a summary (What I Have Learned). It ends with an application task (What I Can Do), an Assessment, and Additional Activities. Answer keys for every activity and test are at the end of each lesson.

  • Learners: Take the pretest first to see what you already know. Write all answers on a separate answer sheet, not on the module. Use the answer key honestly, only after you finish.
  • Parents: Help your child line up the decimal points and work through the word problems. Many use everyday situations like money, distances, and weights.
  • Teachers: The Assessment and Additional Activities in each lesson give ready practice sets with answers. The Lesson 2 word problems review addition as well as subtraction of decimals.

If learners have trouble with any task, the module tells them to ask their teacher or facilitator.

What’s New

Read the problem and try to understand it.

Joyce loves to take a walk from home to school every morning. The distance of school from their home is 2.6793 kilometers. Before going to school, her mother asked her to deliver the bread to her aunt on the next block which is 1.3201 kilometers away from their home. How many kilometers she needs to walk from her aunt’s house to school?

What is It

What is asked in the problem? Can you solve the given problem? What process will you use to find the answer?

Here are the steps to solve it.

  • Write and arrange the numbers vertically. Align the decimal points.
    2.6793
  -  1.3201
  • Subtract the ten thousandths place.
    2.6793
  -  1.3201
  ----------
         2

3 – 1 = 2

  • Subtract the thousandths place.
    2.6793
  -  1.3201
  ----------
        92

9 – 0 = 9

  • Subtract the hundredths place.
    2.6793
  -  1.3201
  ----------
       592

7 – 2 = 5

[transcriber’s note: in the original, the digits being subtracted at each step are shown in highlighted boxes within the column; the highlighting is not reproduced here]

  • Subtract the tenths place.
  2.6793
- 1.3201
--------
   3592

6 – 3 = 3

  • Place the decimal point.
  2.6793
- 1.3201
--------
 .3592
  • Subtract the whole numbers. Subtract the ones.
  2.6793
- 1.3201
--------
  1.3592

2 – 1 = 1

So, 2.6793 – 1.3201 = 1.592

[transcriber’s note: the printed result in the line above reads 1.592; the vertical subtraction shown on this page gives 1.3592]

Therefore, 1.3592 kilometers is the distance that Joyce needs to walk.

  345.6789
- 231.5702
----------
  114.1087

Example: 345.6789 – 231.5702 = N

What’s New

Read and understand the problem.

Jacob went to the department store to buy a pair of shoes. He bought a pair of shoes for ₱245.78. He gave the cashier the amount of ₱250.00. How much change did he receive?

What is It

What information is given in the problem? How are you going to solve for it?

Here are the steps to solve it.

  • Write and arrange the numbers vertically. Align the decimal points. Fill in the empty spaces with zero.
  250.00
- 245.78
--------
  • Subtract from right to left, column by column. Regroup if necessary.
   4 9   9 10
  250.00
- 245.78
--------
  004.22

[chart: labeled diagram of the vertical subtraction; the labels are printed as follows]

  • Subtract the decimal numbers.
    • Start with hundredths.
    • tenths
    • Write the decimal point.
  • Subtract the whole numbers.
    • ones
    • tens
    • hundreds

So, ₱250.00 – ₱245.78 = ₱4.22.

Therefore, Jacob’s change is ₱4.22.

Now that you are already familiar with the steps on how to subtract decimals without or with regrouping, you can move on studying the problem below.

Check your answer. This is one way on how to check if the answer is correct.

   1236.05   the money spent for food supply
+  1221.90   the money left with Mrs. Aligado
--------
   2457.95   the money inside her purse

Example 2:

The cost of apples and grapes is ₱235.50. The grapes cost ₱93.50 more than the apples. Find the cost of the grapes.

To solve the problem above, follow these steps:

Understand:

a. What is asked?

Answer: The cost of the grapes

b. What are the given facts?

Answer: ₱235.50 – the cost of apples and grapes ₱93.50 – the cost of grapes more than the apples

Plan:

a. What is the word/phrase clue?

Answer: cost of the grapes

c. What is the operation to be used?

Answer: subtraction, division and addition

[transcriber’s note: the printed list goes from “a.” to “c.” with no “b.” in this part; reproduced as printed]

d. What strategy you are going to use?

Answer: Block Model Strategy

Solve:

To find for the cost of the grapes you will solve the problem by using the block model strategy.

[chart: block model; Apple and Grapes bars with the total ₱235.50 shown beside them]

Apple = ☐ Grapes = ☐ ₱93.50

₱235.50

In the illustration above, the total cost of two equal units and the other bigger unit which is P93.50 is P235.50.

2 of ☐ + ₱93.50 = ₱235.50

Notice that out of 3 units, the bigger unit is ₱93.50 while the other 2 equal units don’t have value yet. That’s what you will solve for.

To solve for the 2 equal units, you need to take away ₱93.50 from ₱235.50.

2 of ☐ = ₱235.50 – ₱93.50 2 of ☐ = ₱142.00

Then, for the value of 1 unit, you need to divide P142.00 by 2.

1 ☐ = ₱142.00 ÷ 2 1 ☐ = ₱71.00

So, you can say now that each unknown or equal unit is ₱71.00.

This time you place value to each block and solve for the cost of each fruit.

To get the cost of each fruits, you need to substitute the value of each unit. For the apples, it is understood that 1 unit is equal to ₱71.00. For the grapes, add the value of the smaller unit which is ₱71.00 to the bigger unit which is ₱93.50.

[chart: block model; Apples and Grapes blocks with values labeled]

Apples ₱71.00 = ₱71.00 Grapes ₱71.00 ₱93.50 = ₱164.50

Check: This is one way on how to check if the answer is correct.

+  ₱164.50   Cost of the grapes
   ₱ 71.00   Cost of apples
   ₱235.50   Total cost of apples and grapes

-  ₱164.50   Cost of the grapes
   ₱ 71.00   Cost of apples
   ₱ 93.50

Therefore, the cost of grapes is ₱93.50 more than the cost of apples.

What I Have Learned

When two decimals are subtracted,

  • align the decimal points in a straight column.
  • use 0 as placeholder if needed.
  • subtract just like subtracting whole numbers. Regroup if necessary.
  • place a decimal point in the difference.
  • align the decimal point in the difference with the decimal points in the minuend and subtrahend.
