it is true
because in america we read left to right
To order fractions and decimals, you can either write them all in the same form and then compare them, or place them on a number line. Recall that numbers increase in value as you move from left to right along a number line.
8.092 is lesser than 8.9 because 8.092-8.9=-0.808 < 0. You don't have to do subtraction to figure it out. You need to first compare the numbers in the ones place (here it's 8 and 8). Then, because they are equal, compare the numbers in the tenths place (here these are 0 and 9). Since in the tenths place 0 < 9, then 8.09 < 8.9.
technically you don't line up the ones. you line up the decimals. you do this because it is necessary to compare place value to place value in order to order.
it is true
No. The number .205 is .005 smaller than .21 No. 0.21 is bigger.Note: To compare the decimal numbers,1) First compare the whole part.2) Then compare the fractional or decimal part. The numbers after the decimal point.3) Compare the tenth place, then compare the hundredth place and go on.Here 0 is the whole part.In the tenth place we have 2 in both the numbers. But in hundredth place we have 0 in the first number and 1 in the second number.So, the second number, 0.21 is bigger.Source: www.icoachmath.com
Tenths.

Align the numbers according their place values. Go from left to right (decreasing place values) until the face values of the numbers are different. Then the number with the larger face value in that place is the larger number.

To determine which number is greater between 0.64 and 0.46, we compare the tenths place first. In this case, 0.6 is greater than 0.4. Since both numbers have the same tenths place, we then compare the hundredths place. 0.64 has a greater value in the hundredths place than 0.46, making 0.64 the greater number.
Yes. To compare numbers, start with the highest place value digit and if they are equal compare the next place value digit (to the right) until a difference is found. For 1.07 and 1.4: the highest place value digit is the ones digit; they are both 1, so compare the next place value digit: the tenths: for 1.07 it is 0 and for 1.4 it is 4; 0 is less than 4, so 1.07 is less than 1.4

To determine which is greater between .04 and .01, we compare the tenths place first. In this case, both numbers have a zero in the tenths place. Next, we compare the hundredths place, where .04 has a 4 and .01 has a 1. Since 4 is greater than 1, .04 is greater than .01.
