Comparing Decimals • Line up the decimals vertically. • Start at the left and compare corresponding digits. If the digits are the same, move one place to the right. • When two digits are different, the larger number is the one with the larger value.
Example: Comparing Decimals • List from Smallest to Largest 1.834, 1.83, 1.381, 1.38, 1.8 Answer: 1.38, 1.381, 1.8, 1.83, 1.834 1.834 1.83 1.381 1.38 1.8 0 0 00
Example 2: Compare Decimals • List from smallest to largest 15.002, 15.02, 15.001, 15.018, 15.0019 Answer: 15.002 15.02 15.001 15.018 15.0019 0 15.001, 15.0019, 15.002, 15.018, 15.02 0 0 0 0
Rounding Decimals Circle the digit value to round to, and draw an arrow to the number to the right If the value is 5 or greater, round the digit value up one If the value is less than 5, drop the values to right of digit
Example: Rounding Decimal 5 or Greater? No Then drop values 137.89 Round 137.8945 to the nearest hundredths 1 3 7.8 9 4 5 Round 0.3899 to the nearest thousandth 0.39 0.3 8 9 9
Examples: More on rounding Round to the nearest whole number. This is the same thing as rounding to the nearest ones place. 8. 7 6 5 9.0 or 9 4 9 5.2 4 5 495.00 or 495
Adding and Subtracting Decimals • Write the numbers to be added vertically and line up the decimal points. Extra zeros may be placed to the right of the decimal points if needed. • Add or subtract all the digits with the same place value, starting with the right column and moving to the left. • Place the decimal point of the sum or difference in line with the decimal points of the numbers added.
Examples on Adding Decimals 3.1 + 2.16 = 3.1 2.16 0 + 5.26
Example: Adding Decimals Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 15.3000 +1.1109 15.3000 +1.1109 16.4109 15.3 +1.1109
Example: Subtracting Decimals • Subtract 15.87 – 1.649 Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 15.87 - 1.649 15.870 - 1.649 • 15.870 • 1.649 • 14.221
Multiplying Decimals Steps • Set up in multiplying form – don’t worry about lining up decimals or trailing zeros • Multiply • Count decimals places in both multiplied numbers • Move decimal point in final answer
Example: Multiplying Decimals • Multiply 21.7 x .23 Step 3 Step 1 Step 2 3 Decimal Places 4.991 21.7 X .23 21.7 X .23 651 +4340 4991

Dividing a Decimal by a Whole Number • Set up the division problem • Place the decimal point for the quotient directly above the decimal point in the dividend. • Then, divide if the numbers were whole numbers. • Validate by multiplication.
The decimal points are aligned, one above the other. 16 12 8 48 48 0 Dividing by a Whole Number 2.16 . Divide as you normally divide whole numbers.
Dividing by a Decimal When dividing a decimal by another decimal, the division problem is converted into an equivalent problem that has a whole number as a divisor. • Dividing by a Decimal • Make the divisor a whole number by moving the decimal point to the right. Mark that position with a caret (). Count the number of places the decimal point moved. • Move the decimal point in the dividend to the right the same number of places. Mark that position with a caret. • Place the decimal point of your answer directly above the caret marking the point of the dividend. • Divide as with whole numbers.
. . Place the decimal point of the answer directly above the caret. 366 549 549 0 Dividing by a Decimal Example: Divide 4.209 ÷ 1.83. Move each decimal point to the right two places. 2.3 . Mark the new position by a caret (). Divide as normal.
Carry out the division to the thousandths place, and then round. 0 21 53 49 An extra zero was added to carry out the division to the required place. 48 42 62 56 60 Note that the remainder is not zero. Dividing by a Whole Number Example: Divide 263.82 ÷ 7 and round to the nearest hundredths. 37.688 37.688 is rounded to 37.69 (the nearest hundredths).
