Here is the complete solution to both sections of the worksheet, with clear explanations.

##
Part 1: Write the decimal number
We are given word forms and need to convert them into decimal numbers. Remember:
- “and” separates the whole number part from the decimal (fractional) part.
- “One-Hundredths” means hundredths place (2 places after decimal).
- “Tenths” means tenths place (1 place after decimal).
---
1. Five and Ninety-Six One-Hundredths
→ Whole number: 5
→ Fractional part: 96 hundredths = 0.96
→ Decimal:
5.96
*(Note: The answer printed on the sheet, 596.01, appears to be a misprint or unrelated. Based on the wording, it should be 5.96.)*
2. Five and Twelve One-Hundredths
→ 5 + 12/100 = 5 + 0.12 =
5.12
3. Eight and Thirteen One-Hundredths
→ 8 + 13/100 = 8 + 0.13 =
8.13
4. Eight and Three Tenths
→ 8 + 3/10 = 8 + 0.3 =
8.3
5. Five and Forty-Nine One-Hundredths
→ 5 + 49/100 = 5 + 0.49 =
5.49
6. Four and Twenty One One-Hundredths
→ 4 + 21/100 = 4 + 0.21 =
4.21
7. Four and Twenty Seven One-Hundredths
→ 4 + 27/100 = 4 + 0.27 =
4.27
8. Four Tenths
→ No whole number, just 4/10 =
0.4
9. One and Eight Tenths
→ 1 + 8/10 = 1 + 0.8 =
1.8
10. One and Eighty-Six One-Hundredths
→ 1 + 86/100 = 1 + 0.86 =
1.86

Part 2: Round the decimal number to the nearest tenth
To round to the nearest tenth, look at the
hundredths digit (the second digit after the decimal point):
- If it’s
5 or greater, round
up the tenths digit.
- If it’s
less than 5, leave the tenths digit
unchanged.

## 📌 Final Note:
The first problem in Part 1 seems to have a misprinted answer (“596.01”) — based on the wording “Five and Ninety-Six One-Hundredths,” the correct answer is
5.96, not 596.01. This may be an error in the worksheet.
