Practice Decimal Place Value in Math
Use these practice problems to test your method after reviewing the concept explanation and worked examples.
Quick Recap
The value assigned to each digit's position to the right of the decimal point: the first position is tenths (), the second is hundredths (), the third is thousandths (), and so on.
Just as moving left of the decimal point makes each place 10 times bigger (ones, tens, hundreds), moving right makes each place 10 times smaller (tenths, hundredths, thousandths). It's like zooming in—each step splits things into 10 equal pieces.
