Place value – integers and decimals.
Complete the sentences to describe the numbers.

🙂 = Correct, ☹️ = Incorrect

📌 Rules

• Understand the position of the decimal point: Digits to the left of the decimal point represent whole numbers (ones, tens, hundreds, thousands), while digits to the right represent fractional parts (tenths, hundredths, thousandths).

• Decompose combined numbers: Break numbers down by looking at the value of each digit. For example, in 34.258, the 3 is worth 30 (3 tens), the 4 is worth 4 (4 ones), the 2 is worth 0.2 (2 tenths), the 5 is worth 0.05 (5 hundredths), and the 8 is worth 0.008 (8 thousandths).

💡 Tips

• Multiply or divide by 10, 100, or 1000 to shift places: Moving a digit one column to the left makes it 10 times larger; moving it one column to the right makes it 10 times smaller (1/10 of its value).

• Quick typing on our platform: Typing your answer is designed to be super quick and simple! Just type plain digits or decimals like 30 or 0.05 without adding any spaces, words, or extra punctuation.

⚠️ Warnings

• Distinguish whole numbers from fractional parts: Be careful with similar-sounding place value names! Tens are worth 10, but tenths are worth 0.1; hundreds are worth 100, but hundredths are worth 0.01.

• Keep placeholder zeros in decimal parts: When writing the value of a single digit in a decimal, keep all zeros up to the decimal point (e.g. the value of 6 in 5.064 is 0.06, not 0.6).
