Lesson 3: Adding and subtracting decimals word problemsAdding & subtracting decimals word problem
In this math lesson, we learn how to manage a bank account balance by adding and subtracting money with decimals. We start with an initial balance, deposit an amount, and then withdraw cash. By performing these calculations, we determine the final account balance. Created by Sal Khan and Monterey Institute for Technology and Education.

- Couldn't you add 875.50 +(-300) and then add that to the account?? Or am I missing something?(143 votes)
- You could but that would enter BODMAS an entirely different area.(3 votes)
- At, why do people use word problems any way? 2:10(6 votes)
- Because it usually makes it more realistic and for some people it is easier.(16 votes)
- hey guys quandale dingle here my goofy ahh uncle is holding me captive AAAH My friend barnacle jones junior was hit with a rhinoceros horn because he was listening to no maidens(12 votes)
- Well, he would have just simply subtracted 300$ from $5397.58 in his mind as he does for simple calculations. He used 54 seconds extra for the subtracting method. The answer was same from either ways. I really care about time and try not to waste one second of mine.(8 votes)
- Then you can just fast forward, that's what I do, and if I feel I missed something I go back.(5 votes)
- my one and only question is ,is this the same thing as organizing decimals?(:(6 votes)

1232.234 x 43.54 + 3454.76 = ?
Thanks that would be great.(0 votes)- First, we have to do order of operations. We do the multiplication part first, and then add the product to 3454.76. To do large multiplication problems such as this, all we have to do is multiply each digit in one number by the other number, and then add up the products. Let's multiply each digit in 43.54 by 1232.234.
0.04 * 1232.234 = 49.28936
0.5 * 1232.234 = 616.117
3.00 * 1232.234 = 3696.702
40.00 * 1232.234 = 49289.36
Adding up all of these products, we get 53,651.46836. Now to do the second step of the problem, we add this product to 3454.76. To to this, we simply add up all of the place values, and aggregate the result.
0.00006 + 0.00000 = 0.00006
0.0003 + 0.0000 = 0.003
0.008 + 0.000 = 0.008
0.06 + 0.06 = 0.12
0.4 + 0.7 = 1.1
1.0 + 4.0 = 5.0
50 + 50 = 100
600 + 400 = 1000
3000 + 3000 = 6000
50000 + 00000 = 50000
After we add up all of these values together, we get a final answer of 57, 106.2284. Hope this helped!(8 votes)

Video transcript
Leo has $4,522.08 in
his bank account. He deposits another
$875.50 and then withdraws $300 in cash. How much is left
in his account? So he's starting
with $4,522.08. Let's write that down. $4,522.08. And then he deposits, or he
adds, another $875.50. So he's going to add $875.50. When you deposit into an
account, you're putting something into the account, or
you're adding to the account. So after he adds that $875.50,
what does he have? We go back to the penny spot,
or we could view that as the hundredths. A penny is one hundredth
of a dollar. Let me switch colors. We have 8 plus 0 is 8. 0 plus 5 is 5. We have the decimal
right there. 2 plus 5 is 7. 2 plus 7 is 9. 5 plus 8 is 13. Put the 3 down here and regroup
the 1, or carry the 1. 1 plus 4 is 5. So after the $875.50 deposit,
he has $5,397.58. Then he withdraws $300 in cash,
or he takes out $300, so we'll have to subtract that. So then he withdraws $300 and
I just added some trailing zeroes after the decimal. $300 is the same thing as
$300.00 and zero cents. And then we subtract. 8 minus 0 is 8. 5 minus 0 is 5. We have our decimal
right there. 7 minus 0 is 7. 9 minus 0 is 9. 3 minus 3 is 0, and then 5
minus nothing here is 5. So he's the left with, in
his account, $5,097.58.
