- Why do you put the smallest decimal on top and the longest decimal on the bottom?(8 votes)
- It doesn't matter which decimal value is longer or shorter to write, or which comes first or second…
In the video Sal arranged the higher valued decimal on top, (he placed the value with 5-whole over the 0-whole), and says it is just his preference, and it would add the same either way.0:10
because…
★ Addition is Commutative, (able to be rearranged and still add the same).
2 + 5 = 7
5 + 2 = 7
★We can have either decimal value on top or bottom, but…
★ We must LINE UP THE DECIMALS to keep each place value aligned throughout the calculation.

★Use the decimals to guide the place value alignment: line up the decimals above and below, then add each column of numbers, empty spaces are equal to zero.

- hi
can you divide the ten by the two hundred(7 votes)- yes bc it will turn out to be 2000 thing for asking(4 votes)
- in the equation, do you put 0.822 on the top or 5.65? its confusing...(6 votes)
- 5.65 on top and then you put a 0 after the 5 and then you put the 0.822 and add(1 vote)
- When exactly the "standard algorithm" happens in this solution?(3 votes)
- To use the standard algorithm, follow these steps in order:
Line up the decimal points36.413
12.5
+ 30.08
------------
Fill in the blank spots with zeros36.413
12.500
+ 30.080
------------
Add, beginning with the smallest place first
thousandths: 3+0+0=3
hundredths: 1+0+8=9
tenths: 4+5+0=9
ones: 6+2+0=8
tens: 3+1+3=7
Be sure to drop the decimal down into the answer36.413
12.500
+ 30.080
------------
78.993

- Can anyone help me? I did not get it. Please? Thanks for your participation!🙂(2 votes)
- I wish I can help but I am having trouble on it too. And how did you get the emoji?(2 votes)
- do you add the zero ok say if i have 3.4
and i have a 8 do i put the eight under the 4 example-3.4
8(2 votes)- If you're doing math like that then I can show you an example, but no you do not put ones under the tenths. like this:
Wrong:
4.906
+5.04

Right:
4.906

Video transcript
We're asked to
add 0.822 to 5.65. So let me rewrite this. And when I rewrite it, I
want to line up the decimals so that we add the right
place to the right place. And so we could write
either number first, although I like to write
the larger number first. So let's write 5.65. And remember, the
important thing is that we line up
the decimal points. So if we write 0.822-- so
we line up the decimal. Let me line up
the decimal first. So I'll write the decimal
right below the other decimal. And it is 0.822. And now we are ready to add. So let's see what's
going on here. So I like to start in
the smallest place. That way, the carrying
works out well. So you might say, wait,
I need to add this 2 thousandths to something. I don't see anything up here. Well, you could say there's just
a 0 thousandths right up here. Then it makes it very clear. Well, 0 thousandths
plus 2 thousandths is going to be 2 thousandths. 5 hundredths plus 2
hundredths is 7 hundredths. 6 tenths plus 8
tenths is 14 tenths. Well, 14 tenths is the same
thing as 4 tenths and 1 one. Another way of thinking about
it is you're carrying the 1. But really, what you're saying
is, look, this is 14 tenths. I could write it as 4 tenths
and a 1, or a ones place, a 1 in a ones place. Then you have 1 plus 5 is 6. And of course, you cannot
forget the decimal. The decimal goes right there. And this is 6.472.
