Comparing and Ordering Decimals

This video tutorial teaches students how to compare and order decimal numbers. It begins with an explanation of equivalent decimals, showing how numbers like 0.7, 0.70, and 0.700 are equivalent. The tutorial then distinguishes between like and unlike decimals, providing methods to convert unlike decimals into like decimals by adding zeros. The video further explains how to compare decimal numbers by converting them into like decimals and comparing their integral and decimal parts. Finally, it presents an advanced example to reinforce the concepts of comparing and ordering decimals.
