Remember
  • The places right of the decimal point are tenths, hundredths and thousandths.
  • Expanded form shows each digit times its place value, such as 4 × 1/10.
  • To compare decimals, compare digits from left to right, one place at a time.
  • Adding zeros to the end of a decimal does not change its value: 0.3 = 0.30.
  • Round up when the next digit is 5 or more; keep the digit when it is 4 or less.
