OK. Think about it. 0.3 is three tenths. 0.5 is five tenths. If you take a board and cut it into ten equal-sized pieces, you have tenths. So.... would three of those tenths be bigger or smaller than five of those tenths? Smaller.

hi

Well, isn't that just a happy little question! 0.3 is actually smaller than 0.5. Imagine these numbers as little friends on a number line, with 0.3 taking a cozy spot to the left of 0.5. It's all about perspective and appreciating the uniqueness of each number!

In decimal form, 0.3 is smaller than 0.5. This is because the digit 3 is less than 5 in the tenths place. When comparing decimal numbers, you start from the left and move to the right. The first place where the digits differ determines which number is greater.
