Draw a 10x10 grid and shade in 57 of the cells in the grid.
Well, honey, you just shade in 30 squares on that 100 grid. Each square represents one hundredth, so get to coloring and make sure you stay in the lines. It's as simple as that, darling.
You could make each box on the grid be 0.1 wide and 0.1 tall. Then shade over 7 boxes to the left and 4 boxes up. Then when you count the boxes you will have the answer, which will be 28 boxes, which are 0.1 by 0.1, so 0.7*0.4=0.28.
To represent 1.13-1.02 on a hundredths grid, you would first draw 1 whole square to represent the 1 before the decimal point. Next, you would divide the grid into 100 smaller squares to represent the hundredths. You would shade in 13 out of the 100 squares to represent the 0.13 part of 1.13. Then, you would subtract 1.02 by shading in 2 out of the 100 squares to represent the 0.02 part. The difference between the shaded squares for 1.13 and 1.02 would give you the visual representation of the subtraction on the hundredths grid.
Count the number of squares across the top of the grid, the count the number of squares down the side of the grid. Then multiply these two numbers If you have a grid of 100 squares by 60 squares then the number of squares in the grid is 100x60 = 6000
