Comparing Decimals - Worksheet

For educators looking to enhance their pupils' understanding of decimals, a comprehensive set of worksheets is available to facilitate learning. The first worksheet in the series is designed to help students practice writing decimals as represented by place value charts and to compare these decimals using the greater than (>), less than (<), and equals (=) signs. This exercise not only reinforces the concept of place value but also encourages students to recognise and compare decimal numbers accurately.

Subsequent worksheets offer a variety of challenges to further develop students' ability to work with decimals. Worksheet 2 requires pupils to complete place value charts to ensure the decimal statements provided are correct, promoting an understanding of decimal order and equivalence. Worksheet 3 presents pairs of decimal numbers that students must compare directly by inserting the appropriate comparison sign. This direct comparison helps to solidify their grasp of decimal values. Worksheet 4 takes a different approach, asking students to fill in missing digits to make the given sentences true, which is a test of their comprehension and attention to detail. Finally, Worksheet 5 engages students in a different kind of numerical reasoning, where they must arrange given digits to form the greatest or smallest possible numbers, enhancing their strategic thinking regarding decimal place values.
