Let's solve this
Decimal Place Value worksheet step by step.

🔍 Understanding the Grids
Each large square is divided into
10 rows × 10 columns = 100 small squares, representing
1 whole unit.
- So,
each small square represents
0.01 (one hundredth).
- Each
column (10 squares) represents
0.1 (one tenth).
- The shaded portion shows a fraction of the whole, and we need to write that as a
decimal.

✔ Example Given:
- In the example,
3 columns are shaded → $ 3 \times 0.1 = 0.3 $
We'll apply the same logic to each problem.

🔢 Now, Let's Solve Each One:
####
1.
- Shaded:
2 full columns
- $ 2 \times 0.1 = 0.2 $
✔ Answer: 0.2
####
2.
- Shaded:
4 full columns
- $ 4 \times 0.1 = 0.4 $
✔ Answer: 0.4
####
3.
- Shaded:
9 full columns
- $ 9 \times 0.1 = 0.9 $
✔ Answer: 0.9
####
4.
- Shaded:
1 column + 5 extra squares
- $ 1 \times 0.1 = 0.1 $, plus $ 5 \times 0.01 = 0.05 $
- Total: $ 0.1 + 0.05 = 0.15 $
✔ Answer: 0.15
####
5.
- Shaded:
6 full columns
- $ 6 \times 0.1 = 0.6 $
✔ Answer: 0.6
####
6.
- Shaded:
2 full columns
- $ 2 \times 0.1 = 0.2 $
✔ Answer: 0.2
####
7.
- Shaded:
5 full columns
- $ 5 \times 0.1 = 0.5 $
✔ Answer: 0.5
####
8.
- Shaded:
7 full columns + 3 extra squares
- $ 7 \times 0.1 = 0.7 $, plus $ 3 \times 0.01 = 0.03 $
- Total: $ 0.7 + 0.03 = 0.73 $
✔ Answer: 0.73

📝 Explanation Summary:
- Each
column = 0.1
- Each
small square = 0.01
- Count shaded columns first, then any extra squares.
- Add them together to get the decimal value.
