10 + 1 = 11

- 561 . . 1117

In the bolded column, subtract the second digit from the first:

11 - 7 = 4

\frac{- 5 6 1 . . 11 1 7}{+ 4}

Place the decimal point in the answer directly below the decimal points in the terms

\frac{- 5 6 1 . . 11 1 7}{+ . 4}

In the bolded column, subtract the second digit from the first:

5 - 1 = 4

\frac{- 5 6 1 . . 11 1 7}{+ 4 . 4}

= 4.4

Place a minus sign in front of the answer

= - 4.4

(7 + 1)^{2} - \frac{( 11 + 3 ^{2} )}{4}

3 - 3 \cdot 6 + 2

12 \cdot 14

(- 2)^{2} - 4

\frac{18}{6}
