In which of these does the digit 7 have a value of 7 × 0.1?

Select TWO correct answers.

TEKS 4.2B and 4.1D

• 78.0

• 7.1

• 10.74

• Six and Seven Tenths

• Fifty-Six and Seven Hundredths

Answer explanation

Remember that expanded notation is JUST another way to show you a digit's place value.

If they say "6 x 0.1" they really mean "A digit 6 in the tenths place".

If they say "5 x 100" they really mean "A digit 5 in the hundreds place".

PLEASE be careful with your tenTHS and hundredTHS. DO NOT confuse them with the Tens and Hundreds places.

On which number line does Point R best represent a distance of 3.97 units from zero?

TEKS 4.3G and 4.1D

• 
• 
• 
• 

Answer explanation

Your 50/50 guess should have been between the two number lines that show Point R PASSING the number 3; you should have eliminated the other two choices as they have not passed the number 3 on the number line.

Now, once you have your 50/50, look at the number lines carefully; if the decimal is at 97 hundredths, that means it is SUPER close to reaching the 4 on the number lines as you almost have one whole. That means, the correct number line should be the one that shows Point R positioned really close to the number 4.

The models represent the height of some garden statues. Each model is shaded to represent a statue that is taller than 1 meter.

Which garden statues are more than 1.3 meters tall but less than 1.7 meters tall?

TEKS 4.2F and 4.1C

• Statue A and Statue C only

• Statue A, Statue B, and Statue D only

• Statue B and Statue D only

• None of these

Answer explanation

In this problem, you are comparing decimals, You are looking for any of the statues that are more than 1.3 (one and three TENTHS OR one and thirty HUNDREDTHS) AND that are less than 1.7 (one and seven TENTHS OR one and seventy HUNDREDTHS).

Statue A measures 1.03 (one and three HUNDREDTHS. This decimal is too small and has not even reached the 1.3 that is required.

Statue B measures 1.35 (one and thirty-five hundredths). Now, DON'T be distracted by the fact that this decimal is in the hundredths place. Remember that 1.3 also has the same value as 1.30, so Statue B is part of your answer.

Statue C measures 1.8 or 1.80, which is TOO much! Our answer has to fall under 1.7 or 1.70.

Statue D measures 1.68 (one and sixty-eight hundredths). This is also part of our answer.
