What is greater the tenths or hundredths in a decimal?
tenths. one tenth = 1/10 = .1 one hundredth = 1/100 = .01
Is 4.1 or 4.11 greater?
To determine which number is greater, we can compare the digits place by place starting from the left. In this case, the first digit after the decimal point is the tenths place. In 4.1, the digit in the tenths place is 1, and in 4.11, the digit in the tenths place is also 1. Since these digits are the same, we then compare the next digit after the tenths place, which is the hundredths place. In 4.1, the hundredths place is 0, and in 4.11, the hundredths place is 1. Therefore, 4.11 is greater than 4.1.
Why is the tenths place greater than the hundredths place?
Because it is closer to zero. ex. 0.12. The 1 is closer to zero.
Why are tenths larger than hundredths even though 10 is smaller number than 100?
Tenths are larger than hundredths because hundredths are 10 times smaller than the tenths.The first digit on the right means tenths. (1/10)As we move further right, everynumber gets10 times smaller.Thenext digit to the tenths is the hundredths, thus hundredths is 10 times smaller than the tenths (1/10 * 1/10 = 1/100)
Is 1 and 13 hundredths the same as 1 and 30 tenths?
No, it is not.
