Frequently asked questions
▸What place value does Grade 5 cover?
Grade 5 works with whole numbers into the millions and with decimals to hundredths. Digits and Places and Value of a Digit cover the millions; every other sheet at this grade works in decimals, naming places, writing expanded form and words, and comparing and ordering.
▸Which place value sheets does Grade 5 have?
Seven, printed separately. Digits and Places and Value of a Digit work in seven-digit whole numbers. Decimal Place Value names the tenths and hundredths columns and asks what a decimal digit is worth. Expanded Form, Number Words, Comparing Numbers and Ordering Numbers all work in decimals at this grade. Each sheet carries its own three levels.
▸Which is bigger, 4.7 or 4.68?
4.7. Compare place by place after the decimal point: seven tenths beats six tenths, so the hundredths digit never matters. Writing 4.7 as 4.70 makes the comparison obvious and is a good habit to teach.
▸How do you write a decimal in expanded form?
Write what each digit is worth and join the terms with plus signs: 47.85 becomes 40 + 7 + 0.8 + 0.05. The decimal digits keep their place value, so the 5 is written as 0.05, not as 5.
