Adding and Subtracting Decimals

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

The addition and subtraction of decimals is a relatively simple process. The most important thing to remember is to have all of the decimal points lined up. This presentation gives that strategy, plus some others to use when performing these types of calculations. A good presentation!
