The following worksheets will help your students compare decimals, placing them in the correct order.

Home > Math Worksheets > Decimals > Visually Comparing Decimals

This is a great way to help students transition from fractions to decimals. We start them off with the use of a numbers line. Seeing the decimals placed on a numbers line really makes it clear which value is larger. Our Show the Skill worksheet is super helpful to help students get in the habit of evaluating place values by forcing them to diagram the anatomy of each decimal value. Give it a try! Students will also use number lines to assist in ordering the values.

In these worksheets, students will work with number lines and place value charts to locate decimals and/or determine which are the greater value.
