4.00 is larger. The whole numbers are always on the left side of the decimal point. The frations or parts are on the right side of the decimal point. So 4 is a whole number .004 is 4 parts of a whole number, it is 4/1000
Any number is converted to a decimal by writing the integer part on the left side of the decimal point and the fractional part on the right side of the decimal point. The first place on the left side of the decimal point is called the ten's. After that, we have the hundred's, thousand's, ten-thousands, etc. On the right hand side of the decimal point, we have the tenth's, hundredth's, thousandth's, ten thousandth's, etc. So four hundred nine and one-tenth is 409.1.
tenths on right side of decimal, hundreds on the other
Well, darling, when you round 4.99 to the nearest whole number, it becomes 5. But if you want to get technical, 4.99 rounded to the nearest tenth is still 5. So, take your pick and go forth with your newly rounded number.
The "easy" way is to move the decimal point one place to the left and add that new number to the original number. For example, take the number 42:42 (the decimal point is implied and is at the right side)4.2 (the new number)Add those two numbers to get 46.2.Another way is to multiply the number by 1.1, which is the same as 110%.
