Comparing Decimals
• Which is the largest number?.02 .0201 .021
![Page 3: Decimals](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061615/56816498550346895dd66ee6/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Which is the largest number?.02 .0201 .021
The easiest way to tell is to line them up vertically with the decimals over one another
.02.0201.021
![Page 4: Decimals](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061615/56816498550346895dd66ee6/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Which is the largest number?.02 .0201 .021
And then add zeroes until they all have the same number of digits.0200.0201.0210
Now, If you read them ignoring the initial zeroes, it should be obvious which is the biggest
- .0210 (which would read two-hundred-ten)

Place in order from least to greatest:
• 6.4 6.388 6.41

Place in order from least to greatest:
• 6.4 6.388 6.41
6.400 Six-thousand four-hundred
6.388 Six-thousand three-hundred eighty-eight
6.410 Six-thousand four-hundred ten
So, in order, they would be:

In order from least to greatest:
6.388 6.4 6.41
![Page 8: Decimals](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061615/56816498550346895dd66ee6/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Order from least to greatest:
• 0.001 0.00102 0.0011
![Page 9: Decimals](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061615/56816498550346895dd66ee6/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
0.001 0.00102 Step one – line up vertically 0.0011 -------------- 0.00100 0.00102 Step two – add zeroes 0.00110
![Page 10: Decimals](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061615/56816498550346895dd66ee6/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
0.00100 0.00102 Step 3 - Compare 0.00110• 100, 102 and 110• These numbers are already in order from least
to greatest

Adding Decimals
• To add decimals simply line them up vertically with the decimals over one another, bring the decimal straight down into the answer line, and then add as usual.
• Example: 5.321 + 2.397 5.321+2.397 7.718
![Page 12: Decimals](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061615/56816498550346895dd66ee6/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Subtracting Decimals
• To subtract decimals simply line them up vertically with the decimals over one another, bring the decimal straight down into the answer line, and then subtract as usual.
• Example: 0.45 - 0.28
![Page 13: Decimals](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061615/56816498550346895dd66ee6/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Again, it’s just the same as non-decimal numbers. Just make sure the decimals are lined up over one another
and that you bring it straight down.

Multiplying Decimals
• Get rid of unnecessary zeroes• Count the number of digits to the right of the
decimal in the whole problem• Ignore the decimal and solve• Give your answer the same number of digits to
the right of the decimal point as the TOTAL number of digits to the right of the decimal in the problem
• Example: 0.25 x 3.80
![Page 15: Decimals](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061615/56816498550346895dd66ee6/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
• Get rid of unnecessary zeroes:0.25 x 3.80 .25 x 3.8• Count digits:There are three digits total to the right of the decimal
in the problem. (2, 5, and 8)• Ignore decimals and multiply

+ 75 950

Multiplying Decimals
• Give your answer the same number of digits to the right of the decimal point as the TOTAL number of digits to the right of the decimal in the problem
950Three digits to the right of the decimal, so: .950 .95

Multiplying Decimals
• Example 26.28 x 2.5

Multiplying Decimals
• Example 26.28 x 2.5
There are no zeroesThere are 3 digits to the right of the decimal 628x 25 31401256__15700 15.700 15.7

Dividing Decimals
• Dividing decimals by whole numbers:• Simply bring the decimal straight up and then
ignore it. Add zeroes to the end of the divisor if necessary to avoid a remainder.
• Example 40.24 ÷ 5
![Page 20: Decimals](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061615/56816498550346895dd66ee6/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Dividing Decimals
40.24 ÷ 5

Dividing Decimals• Non-terminating decimals are decimals that
keep going without ever getting to a stopping point. Try dividing 100 by 30.
• The way to show that a decimal doesn’t stop is
to draw a line above the decimal digit that continues to repeat. 100 ÷ 30 =

Dividing Decimals By Decimals
• Another Example:2.604 ÷ 8.4
