Our Learning
Target
In today's lesson, our target is to
learn how to compare decimals
using place value charts and area
models.
Comparing Using
Place Value Charts
Step 2 Compare the digits from the largest place
value.
B If the digits are different,
determine which digit is
greater.

5 . 3 9

In the tenths place, 8 is greater than 3. This


means that 5.87 is greater than 5.39. In
symbols, 5.87 > 5.39.
Comparing Using Area Models
Step 1 Draw a model for each decimal. Remember
that 0.01 is 1 out of 100 parts and 1 is
equivalent
1.45 to 100 parts. 1.67
Comparing Using Area Models
Step 3 Use the symbols, >, <, or = to describe the
relationship of two numbers.
1.45 1.67

In symbols, 1.45 < 1.67.
