Some of the terms will be used more than once. left right zeros decimal places larger smaller 1. To convert from fraction notation to decimal notation when the denominator is 10, 100, 1000, and so on, a) count the number of and b) move the decimal point that number of places to the. Leave off the denominator. 2. To convert from decimal notation to fraction notation, a) count the number of, b) move the decimal point that many places to the, and c) write the answer over a denominator of 1 followed by that number of. 3. To compare two positive numbers in decimal notation, start at the and compare corresponding digits. When two digits differ, the number with the digit is the larger of the two numbers. 4. To compare two negative numbers in decimal notation, start at the and compare corresponding digits. When two digits differ, the number with the digit is the larger of the two numbers.

Name: Instructor: Date: Section: Objective C Given a pair of numbers in decimal notation, tell which is larger. Review these examples for Objective C: 6. Which is larger: 0.01 or 0.009? 0.01 Starting at the left, these digits are the first to differ; 1 is larger 0.009 than 0. Thus, 0.01 is larger. In symbols, 0.01 > 0.009. Practice these exercises: 6. Which is larger: 2.08 or 2.11? 7. Which is larger: 2.03 or 2.028? 2.03 Starting at the left, these digits are the first to differ; 2 is smaller 2.028 than 3. Thus, 2.028 is larger.
