23. Copyright © 2000 by Monica Yuskaitis What Do I Mean Compare Decimals? When we compare we use terms such as: When we compare we use terms such as: Less than < Less than < Greater than > Greater than > Equal to = Equal to = Comparing decimals is similar to comparing whole numbers. Comparing decimals is similar to comparing whole numbers. 45<47 45<47 150>105 150>105 When we compare decimals we use place value or a number line. When we compare decimals we use place value or a number line.

25. Copyright © 2000 by Monica Yuskaitis Compare Sara’s score with Danny’s score. 1. Line Up Decimal Points Sara: 42.1 Danny: 42.5 2. Start at the left and find the first place where the digits differ. Compare the digits 1<5 42.1<42.5 This means Sara’s score was lower than Danny’s score. Sara42.1 Danny42.5 Ross42.0 Bethany40.7 Jacob46.1 Half pipe Results

26. Copyright © 2000 by Monica Yuskaitis Let’s Try Using A Number Line Sara42.1 Danny42.5 Ross42.0 Bethany40.7 Jacob46.1 42.042.142.5 Numbers to the right are greater than numbers to the left. Since 42.5 is to the right of 42.1 we have: 42.5>42.1

27. Copyright © 2000 by Monica Yuskaitis Equivalent Decimals Decimals that name the same number are called equivalent decimals. Decimals that name the same number are called equivalent decimals. 0.60 and 0.6 0.60 and 0.6 Are these the same??? Are these the same???

29. Copyright © 2000 by Monica Yuskaitis Annexing Zeros This means placing a zero to the right of the last digit in a decimal. This means placing a zero to the right of the last digit in a decimal. 0.6 0.60 0.6 0.60 Although we added a zero, the value of the decimal did not change!! Although we added a zero, the value of the decimal did not change!! Annexing or adding zeros is useful when ordering a group of decimals. Annexing or adding zeros is useful when ordering a group of decimals.

30. Copyright © 2000 by Monica Yuskaitis Ordering Decimals We can order decimals from least to greatest or we can order from greatest to least. We can order decimals from least to greatest or we can order from greatest to least. Let’s try an example: Let’s try an example: Order 15, 14.95, 15.8, and 15.01 from least to greatest Order 15, 14.95, 15.8, and 15.01 from least to greatest

31. Copyright © 2000 by Monica Yuskaitis First, line up the decimal points First, line up the decimal points 15 15 14.95 14.95 15.8 15.8 15.01 15.01 15, 14.95, 15.8, 15.01

32. Copyright © 2000 by Monica Yuskaitis 15, 14.95, 15.8, 15.01 Next, annex zeros so that each number has the same number of decimal places Next, annex zeros so that each number has the same number of decimal places 15.00 15.00 14.95 14.95 15.80 15.80 15.01 15.01

33. Copyright © 2000 by Monica Yuskaitis 15, 14.95, 15.8, 15.01 Finally, use place value to compare the decimals. Always start from the left!! Finally, use place value to compare the decimals. Always start from the left!! 15.00 15.00 14.95 14.95 15.80 15.80 15.01 15.01 14.95, 15, 15.01, 15.8 14.95, 15, 15.01, 15.8

34. Copyright © 2000 by Monica Yuskaitis One More Example Order these numbers from greatest to least Order these numbers from greatest to least 35.06, 35.7, 35.5, 35.849 35.06, 35.7, 35.5, 35.849
