Here's how it works if you add 0.3+0.8 you get 1.1 but if you subtract 0.8-0.3 you get 0.5 the 0.5 is the factor that you have to add with 0.3 to get 0.11.When you add or subtract you want to line up your decimal, than you would add or subtract like normal than bring down the decimal.At a store, I bought a dress, 2 bracelets, and a vest for $73.28 and I gave the owner $75. She would need to subtract $73.28 from $75 to find my change.]]> 2017-11-21 18:12:46 UTC https://padlet.com/lhuff8355/7egyuszd5flh/wish/209210906 lhuff8355 https://padlet.com/lhuff8355/7egyuszd5flh/wish/209215098 We convert decimals to faction because when you convert it means show another way to write it. A doctor has to make sure you take the right amount of medicine. So when you convert your showing another way to write the fraction.]]> 2017-11-21 18:22:35 UTC https://padlet.com/lhuff8355/7egyuszd5flh/wish/209215098 lhuff8355 https://padlet.com/lhuff8355/7egyuszd5flh/wish/214455738 We multiply decimals so we can find the product. The product is the answer to a problem when you multiply. At the grocery store, if you buy 4.5 lbs of bananas and they are .99 per lb, you would need to multiply 4.5 x .99 to find how much you would pay for your bananas. Here is a example on how to do it if you multiply 4.5 x .99 = 4.455 so your bananas would cost $4.46.]]> 2017-12-08 12:26:50 UTC https://padlet.com/lhuff8355/7egyuszd5flh/wish/214455738 lhuff8355 https://padlet.com/lhuff8355/7egyuszd5flh/wish/214616356 When we compare decimals we  base it upon which decimal is bigger or greater.
You have to know how to compare and order decimals when you compare how big one planet is compared to another because they're measurements are not whole numbers. When we order decimals we put them in order from least to greatest or the other way around. if you compare 0.11 to 0.9 the 0.9  would be bigger because 0.9 is = 0.90 and 90 is bigger than 11. When we order decimals this is how if you order the decimals .2  .3 .8  from greatest to least the answer would be .8 .3 .2 because 8 is = to 80  3 is = to 30 and 2 is =to 20.]]> 2017-12-08 19:00:47 UTC https://padlet.com/lhuff8355/7egyuszd5flh/wish/214616356 lhuff8355 https://padlet.com/lhuff8355/7egyuszd5flh/wish/217349137 When we round decimals we round them up to a bigger or smaller number. If a problem on a test says estimate 2.64 times 1.72 you would round 2.64 to 3 and you would round 1.72 to 2 and 3 times 2 = 6 so the answer would be about 6. Also being able to round decimals  in a problem can make the problem easier to solve because in the example I gave I turned a three digit number into a one digit number than multiplied them together to get something close to what the answer would be.]]> 2017-12-19 19:11:50 UTC https://padlet.com/lhuff8355/7egyuszd5flh/wish/217349137 lhuff8355 https://padlet.com/lhuff8355/7egyuszd5flh/wish/218715866 When we divide decimals the answer is what you get when you multiply it by the number you divided by. So if you divide  .4  by .2 you get 2 so if you multiply .2 by 2 you get .4 . So all you have to do to check you answer is to do the inverse. Inverse means do the opposite so if you divide than to check you answer you multiply. in real-life, a school cafeteria might need to divide 15.5 lbs or meat into 2.5 lb portions, so they need to divide 15.5 by 2.5 to find out much meat is in each portion.]]> 2018-01-04 12:16:19 UTC https://padlet.com/lhuff8355/7egyuszd5flh/wish/218715866 lhuff8355 https://padlet.com/lhuff8355/7egyuszd5flh/wish/219515676 videos
