Reading & Writing Decimals • Say or write the number before the decimal point. • Say or write “and” when you get to the decimal point. • Say or write the number after the decimal point. • Say or write the name of the place that the decimal ends in. (tenths, hundredths, thousandths)
Example 8,243.67 Eight thousand, two hundred forty-three “and” sixty-seven hundredths
Lets Practice: • 247.017 • 16.3 • 4,764.52 • 63,920.143 and seventeen thousandths two hundred forty-seven and three tenths sixteen and fifty-two hundredths Four thousand, seven hundred sixty-four and Sixty-three thousand, nine hundred twenty . one hundred forty-three hundredths
From Words to Standard Form • Read everything that comes before the word “and.” Write that number down. • Place a decimal point at the word “and.” • Read the last word of the sentence to see how many decimal places you need. • Fill in the decimal places as far to the right as possible with your number, then use zeroes to fill any empty spaces.
Example: Write the following number in standard form:two hundred six and five thousandths 5 206 . __ __ __ 0 0 The word “thousandths” indicates that we need three decimal places. When we clean it up, the answer is 206.005

Expanded Form • Write the number that appears before the decimal point in expanded form. • For numbers that are decimals only, place a zero in the ones place. • Also, substitute zeroes for all spaces after the decimal point that come before the digit that you are working with.
Example: Write 13.361 in expanded form. Remember, deal with the number before the decimal first. + 0.3 + 0.06 + 0.001 10 + 3 Then, do the decimal part.
