About this worksheet
The whole trick is lining up the decimal points so tenths add to tenths and hundredths to hundredths. Writing zeros at the end (3.4 as 3.40) keeps the columns even without changing the value.
Make adding decimals worksheets with numbers to the tenths, hundredths or thousandths place, stacked with the decimal points lined up or written in a line. Each sheet includes an answer key.
Add. Line up the decimal points.
The whole trick is lining up the decimal points so tenths add to tenths and hundredths to hundredths. Writing zeros at the end (3.4 as 3.40) keeps the columns even without changing the value.
For in-line problems, have students rewrite each one stacked before they add. Most errors come from skipping that step.
