Tenths and Place Value
- Romesh used base-ten pieces to make the following number. If a flat is one whole, what number did Romesh make?
- If a flat is one whole, then what is the value of a pack? (Hint: How many flats does it take to make 1 pack?)
If a flat is 1 whole, the pieces below show a number a little more than 23.
If a flat is 1 whole, then these pieces are twenty-three and four-tenths. This can be written as either 23.4 or 23
. We can record this using base-ten shorthand.
We can record 23.4 on a place value chart.
The 4 to the right of the decimal point is in the tenths place. So 23.4 is made up of 2 tens (20),
3 ones (3), and 4 tenths ().
