What is a decimal?

A decimal is a numerical system that uses a base of ten, where each digit is represented by the numbers 0 through 9. Decimals are used to express values that fall between whole numbers, such as fractions, percentages, and monetary values, by utilizing a decimal point to separate the whole number part from the fractional part.

How do you represent a decimal in written form?

A decimal can be represented in written form by expressing it as a combination of a whole number and a fraction, with the decimal point separating the two parts. The whole number is written before the decimal point, and the fraction part is written after the decimal point. For example, the decimal "0.75" can be written as "75 hundredths.

How do you compare two decimals?

To compare two decimals, start by comparing the digits in the same place value starting from the left. If the digits are the same, move on to the next place value until you find a point where the digits differ. The decimal with the larger digit in this place value is greater. If all digits are the same until one decimal ends, the decimal that is longer (has more decimal places) is greater.

How do you add decimals?

To add decimals, you simply line up the decimal points in the numbers you are adding and then add the numbers as if they were whole numbers. Make sure to carry over any numbers to the left of the decimal point as needed. Finally, place the decimal point in the sum directly below the decimal points in the numbers you added.

How do you subtract decimals?

To subtract decimals, line up the decimal points, add zeros to make both numbers have the same number of decimal places if necessary, and then subtract as you would with whole numbers. Remember to carry over any borrowing as needed when subtracting each column, and then bring down the decimal point into your answer. Make sure to double-check your work to ensure accuracy.

How do you multiply decimals?

To multiply decimals, you can follow these steps: 1. Ignore the decimals and multiply the numbers as if they were whole numbers. 2. Count the total number of decimal places in both numbers. 3. Place the decimal point in the product so that there are that many decimal places from the right. 4. Add leading zeros if needed to maintain the correct placement of the decimal point. This method ensures that you correctly multiply decimals.

How do you divide decimals?

To divide decimals, you can treat them just like whole numbers but you need to ensure that the decimal points are aligned correctly. First, divide as you would with whole numbers, then add zeros after the decimal point as needed to continue dividing. Finally, bring the decimal point straight up into the quotient.

How do you round decimals to a given place value?

To round decimals to a given place value, identify the digit at the desired place value and look at the digit immediately to its right. If the right digit is 5 or greater, add 1 to the digit you are rounding. If the right digit is less than 5, keep the digit you are rounding the same. Then, replace all digits to the right of the desired place value with zeros.

How do you convert decimals to fractions?

To convert a decimal to a fraction, first determine the place value of the decimal number and then write it as a fraction with the decimal value as the numerator and the place value as the denominator. Simplify the fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor until no further simplification is possible.

How do you convert fractions to decimals?

To convert a fraction to a decimal, simply divide the numerator (the top number) by the denominator (the bottom number). The result will be the decimal equivalent of the fraction. If the division doesn't result in a whole number, you may need to continue dividing and round to the desired decimal place.
