In the decimal number system, the largest digit that can be used in each place value is 9. Place values increase by a power of 10 as you move from right to left, so the ones place can hold digits 0-9, the tens place can hold digits 0-9, and so on.

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
