There is no smallest decimal - just as there is no largest number.

If x was said to be the smallest decimal, inserting a zero immediately after the decimal point would give a number equal to a tenth of x - ie smaller than x.

What is the smallest decimal in the world?

1/infinite


Decimals smallest to largest?

There are an infinite number of different decimals. If you have the whole list, then-- The smallest one is the one with the most zeros after the decimal point,or the smallest digit after the zeros if there's a tie.-- The largest one is the one with the most nines after the decimal point,or the largest digit after the nines if there's a tie.If there are less than an infinite number of decimals on your list, then-- The smallest one is the one with the smallest digit after the decimal point,or if it's a tie, the smallest digit in the second place after the decimal point,or of that's a tie, the smallest digit in the third place after the decimal point . . . etc.-- The largest one is the one with the largest digit after the decimal point,or if it's a tie, the largest digit in the second place after the decimal point,or if that's a tie, the largest digit in the third place after the decimal point . . . etc.As soon as you find the largest, find the next largest the same way, byignoring the first largest and finding the largest of the ones that are left.As soon as you find the smallest, find the next smallest the same way, byignoring the first smallest and finding the smallest of the ones that are left.This whole thing feels like trying to explain how to eat a carrot or tie a shoe.
