‘Ways to think about Decimal Nuinbers; as a Whole Number Plus Tenths, Hundredis, ete Example 1: What are 2.3? ahs + On the left side is "2", that is the whole number part, + The 3 is in the "tenths" position, meaning "3 tenths", or 3/10 + So, 2.3 is "2 and 3 tenths" Example 2: What are 13.76? + Onthe left side is "13", that is the whole number part. . There are two digits on the right side, the 7 is in the "tenths" position, and the 6 is the "hundredths" position . So, 13.76 is "13 and 7 tenths and 6 hundredths” as a Decimal Fraction Or we can think of a decimal number as a Decimal Fraction. ‘A Decimal Fraction is a fraction where the denominator (the bottom number) is a number such as 10, 100, 1000, etc (in other words a power of ten) So "2.3" looks like: 23 10 ‘And "13.76" looks like: 1376 100 as a Whole Number and Decimal Fraction Or we can think of decisal number as a Whole Nismaber plusja Decimal Fraétion. So "2.3" looks like: 2 and 3 10 And "13.76" looks like: 13 and 76 100 Those are all good ways to think of decimal numbers. First, let's have an example: Here is the number "forty-five and six-tenths" written as a|decimal number: ‘The decimal point goes between Ones and Tenths. 45.6 has 4 Tens, 5 Ones and 6 Tenths, like this: Now, let's discover how it all works... + and the "3" is in the Hundreds position, ps aey ae Unt LAS Ho een rvs a SOP fy ‘As we move right, each position is 10 times smaller. =» From Hundreds, to Tens, to Ones And that is a Decimal Number! ‘The decimal point is the most important part of a Decimal Number. Without it we are lost, and don't know what each position means. 17. @ 591 On the left of the decimal point is a whole number (such as 17) e As we move further left, every place gets 10 times bigger. The first digit on the right means i. tenths (1/10) As we move further right, every place gets 10 times smaller (one tenth as big) MULTIPLICATION AND DIVISION OF DECIMALS. Multiplication of Decimals To multiply by 10, is the same as shifting the decimal point one place to the right, as well as multiplying by 100 is the same as shifting the decimal point two places to the right and so on. Division of Decimals ‘To divide by 10, is the same as shifting the decimal point one place to the left, as well as multiplying by 100 is the same as shifting the decimal point two places to the left and so on.
