Decimal Place Value Chart

Nia and Jamal are checking sound levels at a music festival. Use the place-value chart to read, build, and compare decimals. Write one digit in each place; the decimal point separates whole-number places from decimal places.

Tens

Ones

Decimal point

Tenths

Hundredths

Thousandths

Ten-thousandths

Decode the sound check

Use the chart headings above to help you.

1.In 18.064, which digit is in the hundredths place?
2.Jamal records a reading of 7.305. Which place-value column holds the digit 5?
  • Tenths
  • Hundredths
  • Third digit after the decimal point
3.Write 25.47 as the digit in each place: tens, ones, tenths, hundredths. Include a zero if a place has none.
4.A sound meter shows 3.256. Write the number in expanded form using place-value parts.
5.Nia says 4.08 is greater than 4.8 because 8 hundredths is more than 8 tenths. Is she correct? Explain by comparing the decimals.

Build and compare decimals

Show how place value helps you solve each festival challenge.

6.The stage crew needs a reading with 6 in the ones place, 2 in the tenths place, and 9 in the third place after the decimal point. The hundredths digit is 0. What decimal do they need?
7.Write 0.506 in words. Be precise about the place value of its final nonzero digit.
8.Order the sound readings from least to greatest: 2.45, 2.405, 2.5. Use a number line or equivalent comparison to show your reasoning.
2.42.412.422.432.442.452.462.472.482.492.5
9.Invent a decimal between 5.61 and 5.62 that has a 7 in the third place after the decimal point. Tell which digit is in the hundredths place.
10.The final meter reading is 12.304. Explain what the 3, 0, and 4 represent, and why the zero is important to the number's written form.
