About this worksheet

What students practice

  • Students compare two decimals to thousandths using place value and the symbols >, =, and <.
  • Students order and sort decimals by comparing digits from the greatest place value down.
  • Students explain why more digits or extra zeros do not make a decimal greater.

How to use

Use after teaching place value to the thousandths. Encourage students to line up the decimal points or write zeros so both numbers have the same number of places before comparing.
