Decimals 1 Adding Decimals With Hundredths

This document provides examples and practice problems for adding and subtracting hundredths. It begins by having students solve addition and subtraction problems with hundredths without instruction. It then explains that decimals can be thought of as fractions with denominators of 10 or 100. Examples are provided of adding and subtracting hundredths by treating the decimals as fractions. The document provides additional practice problems for adding and subtracting hundredths through mental math, continuing patterns, converting between meters and centimeters, and solving word problems involving decimals.

Remember? 100 cm makes one meter.

5 cm = 0.05 m

Therefore, 1 cm is one-hundredth part of 1 meter.

64 cm = 0.64 m

In other words, 1 cm = 0.01 m.

2 m 12 cm = 2.12 m

5. Convert between meters and centimeters.


a. 0.03 m = __________ cm

c. 1.09 m = __________ cm

e. _________ m = 9 m 80 cm

b. 0.45 m = __________ cm

d. 2.82 m = __________ cm

f. _________ m = 306 cm

6. Solve the problems.


a. Sophia had 2.80 meters of material. She cut off from it a piece that was 1 m 15 cm.
How long a piece is left now?

b. Natalie is 1 m 31 cm tall, and her little brother Elijah is 0.97 m tall.


How much taller is Natalie (in centimeters)?

c. A table is 2.40 m long and 0.90 m wide.


Find its perimeter in meters.
Give the perimeter also in centimeters.

0.2 + 0.05 = _____


If you are at 0.2 and go five hundredths (0.05) further, where will you end up?
Some children think that the answer is 0.7 or 0.07. What do you think?
2
10

Let's write 0.2 and 0.05 as fractions. They have


different denominators (10 and 100).

+ 100

Before adding, we need to convert 2/10 into 20/100.


Then we can add easily.

20
5
25
+ 100 = 100
100

When you add them as decimals (0.2 and 0.05), you can tag a zero on
the end of 0.2 (two tenths), so it becomes 0.20 (twenty hundredths).

0.2 + 0.05

0.20 + 0.05 = 0.25

This is the same process as writing 2/10 as 20/100.

7. Add. Tag a zero on the shorter decimal so it has two decimal digits. You can use the number line.
a. If you are at 0.7 and go four hundredths further, where do you end up?
0.7

+ 0.04

0.70 + 0.04 = ______


b. If you are at 0.5 and go 11 hundredths further, where do you end up?
0.5

+ 0.11

______ + 0.11 = ______


8. Add and subtract. Tag a zero on the shorter decimal number so that both numbers have two decimal
digits. Write the problems using fractions also.

11. a. Remember? One liter is 1,000 milliliters.


How many milliliters is 1/10 of a liter?
How many milliliters is 7/10 of a liter?
And how about 0.4 liters?
b. You pour out 0.3 L of juice out of a full 1-liter pitcher.
How much juice is left, in milliliters?
How much juice is left, in liters?
