To compare such numbers, if the whole part is the same, you need to look at the FIRST decimal digit. In this case, 0 is less than 1. If the first digits are the same, you compare the SECOND decimal digit; if those are the same, you compare the THIRD decimal digit, etc.

No. 5.1 is 5 and "1 tenth and a bit less than 1 tenth", but 5.2 is 5 and "2 tenths". "2 tenths" is greater than "1 tenth and a bit less than 1 tenth". Thus 5.19 < 5.2 Alternatively, with 5.2 there are no hundredths, so you can put a zero in the (empty) hundredths column and not change its value: 5.2 = 5.20 Now it is easy to see 5.19 has 19 hundredths and 5.2 = 5.20 has 20 hundredths and 19 < 20, so 5.19 < 5.20 = 5.2
