Study Notes
- Decimals are closely connected to fractions
- Decimals are helpful when accurately dealing with money, i.e. converting money
- Decimals are also useful when accurately measuring things like mass, length, volume, etc
Meaning of a Decimal
- A rectangle can visually represent decimals if subdivided into 10 equal parts
- If a rectangle is divided into 10 equal parts, one shaded part represents 1/10 of the original rectangle
- 1/10 in decimal notation is 0.1, derived from dividing 1 by 10, representing one-tenth of the rectangle
Place Value of Decimals
- Place values of digits to the left of the decimal point in decimals are determined like whole numbers
- Place values of digits to the right of the decimal point are tenth, hundredth, thousandth, and so on depending on the number of decimal places
Reading Decimal Numbers
- Decimal numbers are read from left to right
- In decimals like 0.2, 0.4, and 0.9, a point separates the whole number (which is 0) from a fraction of 10
- A decimal has two parts: a whole number and a decimal part, which represents a fraction
- These parts are separated by a dot (.) called a decimal point
- For example:
- In 0.8, the whole number is 0 and the decimal part is 8
- In 3.15, the whole number is 3 and the decimal part is 15
- For example,
- 0.7 is read as "zero point seven"
- 1.8 is read as "one point eight"
- 25.6 is read as "twenty-five point six"
- 250.1 is read as "two hundred fifty point one"
- The shaded area of 1/100 of a drawing is written as 0.01
- 0.01 is obtained by dividing 1 by 100
- Using a drawing, different decimal numbers are achieved, for example:
- 3/100 = 0.03
- 12/100 = 0.12
- 94/100 = 0.94
- Digits to the left of the decimal point are read like whole numbers
- Digits after the point are read one after the other, starting from the tenth, followed by hundredth, thousandth, etc.
- For example:
- 0.05 is read as "zero point zero five"
- 0.13 is read as "zero point one three"
- 15.34 is read as "fifteen point three four"
- 525.25 is read as "five hundred twenty-five point two five"
Writing Decimals in Numerals and Words
- 0.4 is written as "zero point four"
- 2.1 is written as "two point one"
- 0.08 is written as "zero point zero eight"
- 13.26 is written as "thirteen point two six"
- "Zero point five" is written as 0.5
- "Eleven point six" is written as 11.6
- "Zero point zero nine" is written as 0.09
- "Twenty-three point three seven" is written as 23.37
Changing a Fraction into a Decimal Number
- Decimals from fractions are obtained by dividing a numerator by a denominator
- Steps:
- Divide the numerator by the denominator
- If the division is not sufficient, put a zero to the right of the numerator to get a number that is divisible by the denominator
- Put a zero in the answer's position, then decimal paint
- Divide and write the answer after the decimal point
Addition of Decimals with Only One Decimal Place
- To find the value of 0.5 + 0.3, a diagram can be used in which one box represents zero point one.
- 0.5 + 0.3 = 0.8 can therefore be demonstrated
Addition of Decimals
- Steps:
- Arrange the two numbers in a vertical position, ensuring the decimal points are aligned vertically.
- Add the tenth, write in the decimal position and add any ones carried over.
- Put a decimal point after the ones digit to separate the tenth digit.
Addition of Decimal Numbers with Two Decimal Places
- Steps:
- Arrange the two numbers in a vertical position corresponding to their place values
- Add the decimal digits and write in the two decimal positions
- Add the ones, write in the ones position
- Put a decimal point after the ones digits to separate the decimal digits
Subtraction of Decimals
- Subtraction of decimals uses the same process as subtracting whole numbers
- Arrange the digits in their place values followed by subtraction from the right to the left
Subtraction of Decimals with One Decimal Place
- Steps:
- Start by subtracting the tenth
- Subtract the ones
- Put the numbers in their correct place values
- Start by subtracting the tenth: 6 – 9. If this is not sufficient, take 1 from the 3 ones and change it to get 10 tenth. Add 10 tenth to the 6 tenth to get 16 tenth. Now, subtract the tenth: 16 – 9 = 7. Write 7 in the tenth position.
- Subtract the whole numbers
- Write the answer in the correct place values.
Subtraction of numbers with two decimal places
- Steps:
- Arrange the numbers vertically corresponding to their place values.
- Start by subtracting the decimal digits
Multiplication of Decimals
- Multiplication of a number with one decimal place by a whole number uses the same procedure as multiplying whole numbers
- Once the result is obtained, insert a decimal point before the last digit of the product to get the digit in the tenth position
- Multiplication of a number with two decimal places by a whole number. Once the result is obtained, a decimal point is inserted before the second right most digit of the product to get the digits in the tenth position and hundredth position.
