Ordering Decimals from Least to Greatest

The video tutorial guides viewers through the process of ordering numbers from least to greatest by examining decimal places. It begins with an introduction encouraging independent problem-solving, followed by a detailed analysis of decimal places, starting from tenths to ten thousandths. The tutorial explains how to identify the smallest and greatest numbers by comparing each decimal place. The key strategy involves comparing numbers from the most significant to the least significant decimal place, ensuring accurate ordering.

What is the first step in ordering decimal numbers?

• Identify the largest number
