Three tenths or 0.3 in decimal.
0.4 is forty hundredths or two fifths.
It works out at 9 tenths, or 0.9 in decimal.
two fifths, four tenths, forty hundredths, etc.......
Zero, one fourth, three fifths and seven tenths.
Twelve twentieths, three fifths, or sixty one hundredths.
five tenths < sixty five hundredths < seven tenths [0.5 < 0.65 < 0.7].
Convert the fractional part into tenths, hundredths, thousandths etc. So four fifths is 8 tenths, so you get 3.8
4 / 5 x 7 / 8 = 4x7 / 5x8 = 28 / 40 = 7 / 10 seven tenths
It's greater because if you draw to thin rectangles and divide one into tenths and one into eighths. First color in three eighths. Then in the other rectangle color in eight tenths. Then what shaded rectangle has the greatest amount. The One with the greatest shaded amount is larger so so... eight tenths is greater then three eighths.I hope that helped :)
four tenths and two hundredths
Four tenths = forty hundredths 4 tenths = 40 hundredths
