4. 220.89
5. 204.26
6. 347.863
7. 24.99
8. 1.201
9. 56.899
10. 59.663

Step-by-step explanation:
1. 16.8 - 8.9 = 7.9
2. 208.3 - 120.7 = 87.6
3. 187.75 - 157.5 = 30.25
4. 91.39 + 129.5 = 220.89
5. 162.6 + 41.66 = 204.26
6. 175.3 + 71.23 + 101.333 = 347.864
7. 114.49 - 89.5 = 24.99
8. 20.6 - 19.399 = 1.201
9. 30.199 + 26.7 = 56.899
10. 15.222 + 23.444 + 20.997 = 59.663
