Answer: E. 4.34
To answer this question, you need to understand the principle in subtracting number with a decimal. In this question, the lowest decimal number is from 103.26 which was 2 number. Then you need to convert 107.6 into 107.60 so you can subtract it with 103.26. The answer would be:
107.60 - 103.26= 4.34
