**__Comparing and Ordering Decimals__**
[|Self Check Quiz]

First line up the decimal point. Then look at each number from left to right and stop at the first number you see that you see that are different ( look at example below ).

7.5//**8**// 7.5//**2**//

These are the first numbers to differ. And since 8 is greater than 2, 7.58 is greater than 7.52.

7.58 > 7.52

__**How to Order Decimal**__
First line up the decimal points. Next, add zeros to the right of the decimal point so that each has the same number of decimal places. Now you can put it from least to greatest or greatest to least. (Look at example below).

//Put in order from least to greatest.// 12, 15.82, 17.2, 13.75

12.//**00**//, 15.82, 17.2//**0**//, 13.75

12.00, 13.75, 15.82, 17.20 Now take away the zeros and there is your answer.
