They also have a decimal point that separates the whole numbers, which are to the left of the decimal point, from the numbers to the right of the decimal points, the decimal places. Speaking of which, the decimal place values are the tenths, hundredths and thousandths. Decimals can be added, subtracted, multiplied and divided, just like whole numbers. Decimals can be rounded of. Decimals can be shown in number lines too.
2) We use decimals to measure volume, money, time, mass, length, height and temperature etc. accurately.We also use decimals in maths.(Pi)3) Fractions and decimals are related because both of them:
  • do not come in wholes (mostly)
  • can be converted between both of them
  • are rational numbers
  • can come in number lines

For example 3.5 is between 3 & 4.
Decimals represent fractional values in groups of 10,e.g.0.1 = 1/10, 0.01=1/100 and 0.001=1/1000

It also separates them from one another.
1.b) The number after the decimal point is smaller than the number that is in front of the decimal point.
1.c) Decimals are rational numbers that is between 2 whole numbers.
2. Decimals are used on the money that we use in our everyday lives. For example, 2.30 has the same meaning as $2.30 (two dollars and thirty cents).
3. Both fractions and decimals are one way of expressing small parts of a whole pizza. For instance, 7 over 10 is how we express it in fractions. Whereas,0.7 is how we express 
it in decimals.]]> 2017-06-27 14:40:43 UTC https://padlet.com/ong_chong_ghee/decimals/wish/177562513 Caryl Chong carylchong https://padlet.com/ong_chong_ghee/decimals/wish/177641463 1) Decimals are numbers that fit between 2 whole numbers and every number has a decimal. Decimals can be expressed as fractions.

2)  We use decimals calculating money and when reading measurements. we use decimals to express numbers which cannot be written as a whole number.

3) Decimals and fractions are not whole numbers, but they are the values in between whole numbers. decimals can be converted into fractions and fractions can also be converted into decimals.]]> 2017-06-28 11:38:03 UTC https://padlet.com/ong_chong_ghee/decimals/wish/177641463 Aqeel https://padlet.com/ong_chong_ghee/decimals/wish/177644075 1] I learnt that all numbers have a decimal point ,even whole numbers.Take 360 as an example.Even that it is a whole number it still has a decimal point.(360.0) Decimals are expressed in tenths,hundredths, and thousandths

2] We use decimals to calculate the circumference of a circle which is PI (3.141592654) Decimals are used to measure length, height , weight, breadth, depth, pain, heat, etc.....
(eg. in professions such as sewing ,carpentry, medical professions, construction etc....)

3] Decimals are another way of expressing fractions.
(eg. the fraction 56/100 is 0.56 in the form of decimals) 
When a fractional number is not 
divisible , the quotient will be in decimals.
eg. PI is 22/7=3.14152654

1.5 is in the middle of 1 and 2 as it is 0.5 less than both. All decimals have a decimal point and at least 1 decimal number. 
2)We can use decimals in money, length and temperature. In money, 1 dollar is 100 cents. 1 cent can become 0.01 as it is out of 100.
3)Decimals and fractions are related.
eg. 0.5 and 1/2.
Both numbers are in the middle of 2 whole numbers. 0.5 is out of 10 and 1/2 can be times 5 to become 10. Both 0.5 and 1/2 can have the same value
