Study Notes
Understanding Decimals
- Decimals represent fractional values, written using a decimal point.
- Digits to the left of the decimal point represent whole numbers.
- Digits to the right of the decimal point represent fractional parts.
- Each position to the right of the decimal point represents a smaller fractional value.
Comparing Decimals
- To compare decimals, align decimal points.
- Start comparing digits from left to right.
- If digits are the same, move to the next digit to the right.
- The decimal with the larger digit in any place value position is the larger decimal.
Ordering Decimals
- Ordering decimals involves arranging them from least to greatest or greatest to least.
- This requires comparing multiple decimals using 'Comparing Decimals' rules.
- Arrange decimals in order by comparing place values, starting from the left.
Decimals on a Number Line
- A number line visually represents the order and magnitude of numbers.
- Decimals can be placed on a number line, showing relative positions.
- To plot a decimal, find the whole number part and fractional part, then position using the fractional value.
- Number line spacing reflects decimal values; each interval corresponds to the specified scale or unit.
- Fractions and decimals on a number line clearly show relative size.
