Before we dive in, we will need to have a solid understanding of <a class=\"ylist\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mometrix.com\/academy\/place-value\/\">place value<\/a>. <\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"Place_Value\" class=\"m-toc-anchor\"><\/span>Place Value<\/h2>\n<p>\nDecimals and place value go hand in hand, so it can be tough to make sense of one without having some background experience with the other. Take a look at this place value chart.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-64849\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mometrix.com\/academy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/place-value-chart.png\" alt=\"place value chart\" width=\"629.37\" height=\"353.97\" style=\"box-shadow: 1.5px 1.5px 3px grey\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mometrix.com\/academy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/place-value-chart.png 1920w, https:\/\/www.mometrix.com\/academy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/place-value-chart-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/www.mometrix.com\/academy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/place-value-chart-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.mometrix.com\/academy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/place-value-chart-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/www.mometrix.com\/academy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/place-value-chart-1536x864.png 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>With this example of 3,528.74, we can see that each movement to the right of the decimal point drops us down by a factor of 10. We move from tenths, to hundredths, to thousandths. On the other hand, as we move to the left of the decimal point, we <em>increase<\/em> by a factor of 10 each time. We move from tens to hundreds to thousands. This base 10 number system is not the only number system in use today, but it is very common and widely used around the world.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s look at another example. This time, let\u2019s use the number 136.289. This number as a value is read as \u201cone hundred thirty-six, and two hundred eighty-nine thousandths.\u201d Let\u2019s break this value up into its different parts in the terms of place value. In this example, we look at each digit and then take note of where it is in relation to the decimal point to determine the total value of the number.<\/p>\n<p>The digit 2 is located in the tenths position, so it does not represent the value &#8220;2&#8221; but \u201c2 tenths.\u201d The digit 1 is located in the hundreds position, so it does not represent a value of &#8220;1&#8221; but a value of \u201c1 hundred.\u201d When you break apart a decimal value into its different parts, you are essentially thinking about the number in its expanded form. You are looking at each digit, and identifying how much this digit represents based on its location. The location of each digit reveals its value, or \u201cplace value.\u201d This is similar to the process of writing a number in expanded form.<\/p>\n<p>Our number 136.289 would be \\(100 + 30 + 6 + 0.2 + 0.08 + 0.009\\), in expanded form. This can sometimes be helpful in order to see each digit as an independent value.<\/p>\n<p>The place value as a system allows us to write and express numbers with extreme accuracy. For example, instead of simply rounding the amount of fuel needed for an important mission to the moon as approximately 950 gallons, we could instead say with complete accuracy and confidence that the amount needed for a safe trip would be exactly 950.458 gallons.<\/p>\n<p>Another helpful way to visualize place value is by using money. We know that one dollar can be represented by 10 dimes. We also know that one dollar can be represented by 100 pennies.<\/p>\n<p>This is similar to saying that one whole can be represented by 10 tenths or by 100 hundredths.<\/p>\n<blockquote style=\"border: 0px; padding: 30px; background-color: #eee; box-shadow: 1.5px 1.5px 3px grey; width:80%; margin: auto;\">\n<div style=\"font-style:normal; font-size:90%; text-align:center;\"><strong>$1 = 10 dimes<\/strong><br \/>\nOne dime is one tenth of a dollar (\\(\\frac{1}{10}\\))<\/p>\n<p><strong>$1 = 100 pennies<\/strong><br \/>\nOne penny is one hundredth of a dollar (\\(\\frac{1}{100}\\))<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nWith this understanding of place value, we are ready to dive into the topic of decimals.<\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"Decimals\" class=\"m-toc-anchor\"><\/span>Decimals<\/h2>\n<p>\nOperations with decimals is a topic that most of us use in our daily lives, especially when dealing with money.<\/p>\n<p>For example, 5 dollars, 2 dimes, and 5 pennies is represented by the decimal number $5.25. If we remember our place values, the 5 in the ones place represents 5 dollars, the 2 in the tenths position represents 20 cents (or 2 tenths), and the 5 in the hundredths position represents 5 cents (or 5 hundredths).<\/p>\n<p>In the real world, it is often convenient to work with <a class=\"ylist\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mometrix.com\/academy\/proper-and-improper-fractions-and-mixed-numbers\/\">fractions and mixed numbers<\/a>. Other times, it makes more sense to work with decimals. If we want to talk about measuring amounts in a recipe, it is generally helpful to use fractions. On the other hand, when we are dealing with something like temperatures, it is often more efficient to use decimals.<\/p>\n<p>Using fractions, mixed numbers, or decimals does not change the amount, it simply changes the form. For example, if a recipe calls for 4\/5 cups of flour, this is the same amount as the decimal 0.8. These values are equivalent.<\/p>\n<p>All decimal values can be written as fractions, mixed numbers included. For example, when writing the decimal value 5.25 as a mixed number, we simply need to look at each digit and then note its location.<\/p>\n<p>With the value 5.25, we would represent the first 5 in the ones position as simply 5. Then, we look at the values to the right of the decimal. We see .25. This reaches out to the hundredths place, so it is representing twenty-five hundredths, or as a fraction \\(\\frac{25}{100}\\). So, 5.25 as a mixed number would be \\(5\\frac{25}{100}\\). We can simplify the fraction, making it \\(5\\frac{1}{4}\\).<\/p>\n<p>As you can see, using decimals is something we do on a regular basis, and being able to convert between decimals and fractions can ensure that our number is as accurate as possible.<\/p>\n<p>I hope this review was helpful!
