About "Comparing and ordering decimals"
Comparing and ordering decimals worksheets :
Worksheets on comparing and ordering decimals are much useful to the kids who are at the stage of learning decimal numbers.
Because, when they practice questions on comparing and ordering decimals, they will get a clear idea about decimal numbers.
Comparing and ordering decimals worksheets - Problems
1. Compare 1.031 and 0.256
2. Compare 0.231 and 0.228
3. Order the decimal numbers 1.023, 1.101 and 0.985 from least to greatest.
4. Order the decimal numbers 0.098, 0.123 and 0.985 from least to greatest.
Comparing and ordering decimals worksheets - Solution
Problem 1 :
Compare 1.031 and 0.256
Solution :
To compare the given decimal numbers, we have to write them in a table as given below.
In the above table, compare the numbers in the first column (units).
We have "1" in 1.0231 and "0" in 0.256.
Since 1 is greater than 0, we have
1.031 is greater than 0.256
Problem 2 :
Compare 0.231 and 0.228
Solution :
To compare the given decimal numbers, we have to write them in a table as given below.
In the above table, compare the numbers in the first column (units).
In the first column, we have have "0" in both the decimal numbers 0.231 and 0.228.
So, we have to compare the numbers in the third column (Tenths).
In the third column (Tenths), we have the same number "2" in both the decimal numbers.
So, we have to compare the numbers in fourth column (Hundredths).
In the fourth column (Hundredths), we have "3" in 0.231 and "2" in 0.228.
Since 3 is greater than 2, we have
0.231 is greater than 0.228
Problem 3 :
Order the decimal numbers 1.023, 1.101 and 0.985 from least to greatest.
Solution :
To order the given decimal numbers, first we have to write them in a table as given below.
To get the least one , compare the numbers in the first column (units).
We get "0" in 0.985. This is the least among the given three decimal numbers.
To get the next least number, let us compare 1.023 and 1.101.
In both the decimals, we find "1" in the first column (units).
Now, we have to compare the third column (Tenths). There we get "0" in 1.023 and "1" in 1.101.
Since "0" is less than "1", the next least decimal is 1.023.
Therefore, the order of the given decimals from least to greatest is
0.985, 1.023, 1.101
Problem 4 :
Order the decimal numbers 0.098, 0.123 and 0.985 from least to greatest.
Solution :
To order the given decimal numbers, first we have to write them in a table as given below.
To get the least one , compare the numbers in the first column (Units).
We get "0" in all the three decimal numbers in the first column.
So, let us move to the third column (Tenths) and compare the numbers.
In third column, we get "0" in 0.098.
Therefore, 0.098 is the least among the given decimal numbers.
In the same third column, we get "1" in 0.123.
This is the next least decimal number.
Therefore, the order of the given decimals from least to greatest is
0.098, 0.123, 0.985
Note :
In the third column also, if you get the same number in all the three decimal numbers, compare the numbers in the fourth column (Hundredths column) and so on.
After having gone through the stuff given above, we hope that the students would have understood "Comparing and ordering decimals worksheets".
