Lesson 28: Comparing and Arranging Decimals Lesson 30: Addition of Decimals

Remember: Remember:

1) Align the decimal points 1) Align the decimal points and the digits according to their respective
2) From left, find the first place where the digits are different. place value.
3) Compare the digits. 2) Add zero to the right of the decimal number to make the number of
4) Adding zero to the right of the decimal number does not change the decimal places in the addends equal. Add as in adding like a whole
value of the number. number.
3) Write the decimal point in the sum.
Examples:
Examples:
A.) Compare
1) 0.15 + 0.12
1) 3.4 < 3.5 Solution:
2) 11.6 > 11.09 0.15
3) 6.7 < 9.0001 + 0.12
0.27

B.) Arrange: (Ascending)

2) 39.07 + 6.758
3.5 3.03 3.1 3.23 Solution:
39.07
4 1 2 3
+ 6.758
Lesson 29: Rounding Off Decimals 45.828

Note:
3) 8.493 + 12.75 + 0.673 + 12
1) Identify the digit to be rounded. Solution:
2) If the digit to its right is 5 and above, add one to the digit to be 8.493
rounded off and drop all the digits to its right. 12.750
3) If the digit to its left is 4 and below, retain the digit to be rounded + 0.673
off and drop all the digits to its right. 12.000
33.916
Examples:

1) 4.67 (tenths) = 4.8

2) 19.381 (hundredths) = 19.38
3) 4.999 (tenths) = 5
Lesson 31: Subtraction of Decimals Lesson 32: Multiplication of Decimals
Remember:
1) Align the decimal points and the digits according to their respective Remember:
place value.
2) Add zero to the right of the decimal number to make the number of 1) In multiplying decimals, there should be as many decimal places in
decimal places in the given equal. Subtract as in adding like a whole the product as there are in the factors.
number.Write the decimal point in the difference. 2) Multiply as in multiplying a whole numbers.
Examples:
Examples:
1) 0.9 - 0.14
Solution: 1) 8.5 x 1.2
0.90 Solution:
- 0.14 8.5
0.76 x 1.2
170
2) 8.26 - 1.329 + 85____
Solution: 10.20
8.26
- 1.329 2) 17.6 x 4.66
6.931 Solution:
3) 14 – 3.476 17.6
Solution: x 4.66
14 1056
- 3.476 + 1056
10.524 704___
82.016
4) N + 3.5 = 10
Solution: 10 – 3.5 = 6.5

5) 3.7 – N = 0.8
Solution: 3.7 – 0.8 = 2.9

6) N – 0.6 = 5
Solution: 0.6 + 5 = 5.6
Lesson 33: Division of Decimals 3.)

Remember:

1) In dividing decimals, when the divisor is a whole number, divide as

in dividing like a whole number.
2) In dividing decimals where in the divisor is a decimal number, move
the decimal point of the divisor to the rightmost until it becomes a
whole number. Remember to move the decimal point of the
dividend as many times as you moved the decimal point of the
divisor. Annex zero/s if necessary.

Examples:

1.)
