In the decimals chart, the memory cue "dividing by a whole number is up" means that when you divide a decimal by a whole number, the decimal point in the result shifts to the left, effectively making the value smaller. This visual cue helps students remember that division results in a smaller number, reinforcing the concept that dividing by a whole number decreases the value of the original decimal.


How do I number decimals from smallest to largest?

To number decimals from smallest to largest, first, align the decimal points to easily compare the values. Start by comparing the digits to the left of the decimal point; the smaller whole number indicates a smaller decimal. If the whole numbers are the same, compare the digits to the right of the decimal point, starting from the left. Order the decimals based on these comparisons until they are sorted from smallest to largest.

When is the sum of two decimals equal to a whole number When is the difference of two decimals equal to a whole number?

The sum of two decimals equals a whole number when the total number of decimal places in both decimals is the same or when one decimal has a sufficient number of trailing zeros to make the total a whole number. For the difference of two decimals to equal a whole number, the two decimals must differ such that their decimal parts cancel each other out, resulting in an integer. In both cases, the key is ensuring that the decimal portions align appropriately.
