NUMERACY

This term we have looked at ANGLES and the operation of SUBTRACTION with regrouping. We are currently studying DECIMALS and the place value of Tenths.

DECIMALS A decimal point separates WHOLE NUMBERS FROM FRACTIONS.

Remember digits on the left of the decimal point are __WHOLE NUMBERS__. Digits to the right of the decimal point are __FRACTIONS LESS THAN 1.__ For example: 2.6 This number is known as TWO (whole number) and SIX TENTHS (fraction less than 1).

10 TENTHS = 1 WHOLE 10 HUNDREDTHS = 1 TENTH HOW MANY HUNDREDTHS MAKE A WHOLE??????
