Adding and Subtracting Decimals

The video tutorial explains how to add and subtract decimals by aligning them in columns. It provides a detailed walkthrough of solving an addition problem by carrying over numbers and aligning decimal points. The tutorial then moves on to a subtraction problem, demonstrating borrowing techniques. Finally, it concludes with a brief introduction to exercise problems to reinforce the concepts learned.
