To compare two numbers, you compare digits with the same place value, starting with the largest place-value digit
If the whole numbers and tenths are the same, look at the value of the hundredths digit to compare and order

A number with more digits after the decimal point is greater than a number with fewer digits.

Create the numbers using place value counters or base 10 blocks and re-iterate the magnitude of each digit within the number.

Compare - When you compare, you look for similarities and differences in an object or value.
Place value - The value of a digit in a number based on where it is placed.
Order - Putting numbers or objects in position based on a set rule.
Ascending - When items are arranged from smallest to largest.
Descending - When items are arranged from largest to smallest.
