When we use decimals you can think of one whole divided into ten parts, they’re tenths.

Or if you divide into one hundred parts, these are hundredths.

So, how do we write them?

Say hello to the decimal point.

We place digits to the left or right of the decimal point, depending on their value.

On the left are our tens and ones and on the right are our tenths.

Here she is… aww isn’t she sweet?

When the tenths get up to nine we need the ones.

Now, what about the hundredths?

Aww isn’t he cute?

So, now we’ve got the tens and ones on one side of the decimal point and the little tenths and hundredths on the other.

Ah, one big happy family.
