Answer 1

To calculate the difference, we can substract one value from the other.

`29.07-26.785`

Since we have one less decimal case on the second number, we can add a 0 to it:

`29.070-26.785`

Evaluating the substraction, we have:

So, the reusult is:

`29.070-26.785=2.285`

So, the difference is 2.285 seconds.
