Place Value Chart with Decimals
The decimal place value chart shows the place value of the digits in a decimal number. A decimal number system is used to express the whole numbers and fractions together using a decimal point. This decimal point lies between the whole number part and the fractional part. While the whole number part follows the usual place value chart of ones, tens, hundreds, and so on, there is a slight difference in the place value of the numbers to the right of the decimal point. If we go to the right after the decimal, the place values start from tenths and go on as hundredths, thousandths, and so on. The first place to the right of the decimal is on the one-tenth (1/10th) position, the next one is 1/100 and it goes on. Observe the following place value chart for decimal numbers.
