Decimals

This week for maths I had to learn about decimals.

First I had to Subtracting decimals uses the same setup as adding decimals: line up the decimal points, and then subtract. In cases where you are subtracting two decimals that extend to different place values, it often makes sense to add extra zeros to make the two numbers line up—this makes the subtraction a bit easier to follow.

Next I had to add to subtract decimals 1) Line up the decimal points vertically. Fill in any 0’s where necessary. 2) Add or subtract the numbers as if they were whole numbers. 3) Place the decimal point in the sum or difference so that it lines up vertically with the numbers being added or subtracted.
