Is 0.005 greater than 0.0005?

yes, you go to the right of the decimal it is like the opposite of being to the left of it..for example if you are going to the right of the decimal more zeros would mean a bigger number right? So going to the left is the opposite, more zeros(or any placeholder technically) would mean a smaller number

What is 4.99 when rounded off?

Rounding off means rounding to the nearest integer, thereby eliminating any numbers to the right of the decimal point. If the numbers on the right side of the decimal point are greater than, or equal to 0.5 (e.g. 2.7), then you delete all the numbers to the right of the decimal point and increase the remaining number by one. If they are not greater than, or equal to 0.5 (e.g. 5.1), then you delete all the numbers to the right of the decimal point and leave the remaining number as it is.In the case of 4.99 the numbers to the right of the decimal point are greater than 0.5 so we delete the numbers to the right of the decimal (4.99) then increase the remaining number by one (4+1=5). The answer is 5.


When dividing a decimal by a decimal why is it sometimes necessary to add a zero to the right of the decimal point in the quotient?

Because when you want to divide a decimal by a larger number, like 3 divided by 5, you need to add a zero to make the 3, 30, so you can divide, but then the quotient has to be a decimal because 5 does not go into 3 evenly

Which way do you go when you divide decimals the left or right?

When dividing decimals, you move the decimal point to the right in the divisor (the number you are dividing by) to make it a whole number. You must then move the decimal point in the dividend (the number being divided) the same number of places to the right. This ensures that the division remains equivalent. The result will have its decimal point placed according to the new position of the decimal in the dividend.
