Sure, let's work through the given problem step-by-step.

First, let's handle the subtraction problem involving the two pairs of numbers:

1. Subtracting 16.0983 from 44.57:
[tex]\[ 44.57 - 16.0983 = 28.4717 \][/tex]
- Write down the numbers vertically aligning the decimal points.
- Start subtracting from the rightmost digit to the leftmost digit.
- Ensure each digit is subtracted correctly after aligning decimal points.

2. Subtracting 16.97 from 4.7:
[tex]\[ 4.7 - 16.97 \][/tex]
- Rewrite the numbers so their decimal points are aligned.
- Since 4.7 has fewer digits after the decimal than 16.97, you can think of it as 4.70 for easier subtraction.
- Subtracting 16.97 from 4.70 gives:
[tex]\[ 4.70 - 16.97 = -12.27 \][/tex]
- This result is negative because 16.97 is larger than 4.70.

Therefore, the final results of our calculations are:
[tex]\[ 44.57 - 16.0983 = 28.4717 \][/tex]
[tex]\[ 4.7 - 16.97 = -12.27 \][/tex]

So, the step-by-step breakdown gives us two results:
- The first result is 28.4717.
- The second result is -12.27.
