Well, isn't that a happy little question! Decimals start with the tenth place because they represent parts of a whole, like a pie or a painting. Just like how a whole number represents a complete object, decimals show us smaller parts of that whole. So, starting with the tenth place helps us understand and appreciate those smaller pieces a little better.
It needs to have decimals in order to round it to the nearest tenth ex:81.48 would be rounded to 81.5 because 4 is in the tenths place

The oneths place and the ones place would be the same thing. In the base ten system, the places are powers of ten. Hundreds is 102, tens is 101, ones is 100, tenths is 10-1, hundredths is 10-2. There is no room for a oneths place.

There isn't any. As you go to the right, each place is one tenth of the previous place.

A tenth of a number deals with decimals. The way to think about a tenth is that 1/10 is one tenth, and 1/10 as a decimal is 0.1. therefore the first decimal place is always the tenth of a number, so to answer your question the nearest tenth of 15.58 would be 15.6.
To find what 0.003 is one-tenth of in decimals, you can multiply 0.003 by 10. This gives you 0.03. Therefore, 0.003 is one-tenth of 0.03 in decimal form.
