Decimal Place Value Worksheets
Our Decimal Place Value Worksheets make it easy for students to identify and compare decimal values, ranging from tenths to thousandths. Understanding place value is a key step toward mastering decimal numbers—and our worksheets guide learners every step of the way.
Eg. 834.986
“A dot separates the whole number 843 from the decimal number 986.”
Let’s look into decimal numbers now.
Write 9 tenths as 9/10, which equals 0.9.
Write 8 hundredths as 8/100, which equals 0.08.
Write 6 thousandths as 6/1000, which equals 0.006.
In the whole number place value system, we typically use terms like tens, hundreds, thousands, and ten thousands.
However, when working with decimals, we shift to tenths, hundredths, thousandths, ten thousandths, and beyond.
