Ordering and Comparing Decimals

The video tutorial explains how to order decimals from least to greatest, especially when they have different numbers of digits after the decimal point. It demonstrates aligning decimals vertically to compare place values and adding zeros to create equivalent decimals. The tutorial concludes by ordering the decimals and listing them in their original form.

What is the main challenge when ordering decimals with different numbers of digits after the decimal point?

• They are in different units.

• They have different numbers of digits after the decimal point.

• They are all the same value.

• They have different whole number parts.
