Lesson # 1 – What Are Decimals?
This lesson explains how to read and work with decimals.
coworker how much medicine you need.
“I need two tenths of a gram of insulin.”
Saying numbers correctly can ensure everyone is talking about the same thing.
Trang 4 Decimals are numbers that are less than 1 but greater than 0
0 < 0.1 < 1 (0.1 is between 0 and 1, so it is a decimal)
They appear to the right of the decimal point
whole number decimal
39.1
“39” is the whole number part
“.1” is the decimal part
“Thirty-nine and one tenth”
“0.1” is the same thing as “.1” “.1” is just
a lazy way of writing the number

The “3” is in the hundreds column,
so there are “3 hundreds”
If all the other numbers were
a 0, then the number would be 00300.0000, which is 300 (three hundred.)
The “7” is in the hundredths column,
so there are “7 hundredths.”
If every other number were a 0, then the number would be 00000.0700, which is 0.07 (seven hundredths.)
Remember, decimals have a
“th” at the end of their names

a decimal don’t change the value, but they do change how you pronounce the number

How do you say these numbers?
37.03 = Thirty-seven and three hundredths

Trang 9 Line up the decimals points
Put zeroes in the blank spaces to help you see what you’re adding
When adding, don’t forget to carry when
numbers add up to more than 10
When subtracting, don’t forget to borrow if
the top number is smaller than the bottom number

Trang 10 All numbers have a decimal point, even if you can’t see it.
For example, $15 can also be written as $15.00

100 = 100 = 100.00

Remember when you’re borrowing,
you can’t borrow from nothing (zero)
Make sure you borrow all the way
over to the first non-zero number you
find.

Trang 13 Don’t worry about the decimal until you’re done multiplying everything
First multiply, and then count up the places to the right of the decimal point and put the decimal in the answer.
3.51 x 1.4 351
×14
1404

4914
3 decimal
places
first, multiply 351 by 4
then, multiply 351 by 10
then, add up the numbers
last, since there are a total of
3 decimal places in the
problem, start from the right
and move the decimal 3
places to the left in the answer (the problem has 3 decimal places and so does the answer)
4.914
So, 3.51 x 1.4 = 4.914!

Trang 15 There are some shortcuts you can take if you’re
multiplying by a multiple of 10 Multiples of 10 are things like 10, 100, 1000 and also things like 0.1, 0.01, 0.001, etc.

right as you can
Step 2 - Move the decimal of the dividend (inside the house) by the same
number of spaces
Step 3 - Move the decimal straight up onto the answer line
Step 4 - Divide like normal

Think of the division sign, | , like a house With all division problems, the first number goes inside the house (the 8.91) and the second goes outside the house (3.3)
If you forget, think about a problem you know 10 ÷ 2
= 5 You wouldn’t say 10
= 5 You wouldn’t say 10 | 2 To work it out you’d say 2 |
