Comparing Decimals to Hundredths

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is for practicing the comparison of decimal numbers to the hundredths place. It presents a list of pairs of decimal numbers, and students are required to circle the letter that corresponds to the correct comparison symbol (greater than, less than, or equal to) for each pair. Additionally, there’s a joke at the bottom of the page that is revealed when the students match the letters to the answers of the decimal comparisons. The worksheet is structured to encourage both analytical thinking and engagement through humor.

The purpose of this worksheet is to help students understand and master the concept of comparing decimal numbers. It focuses on enhancing their ability to recognize the value of decimals to the hundredths place and to use comparison symbols correctly. By associating each correct answer with a letter that forms part of a joke, the worksheet also aims to make learning fun and memorable. Moreover, it encourages attention to detail since some letters may appear more than once or not at all in the answers.

Compare the two decimals.  Circle the letter that corresponds to the correct symbol. Put the circled letter in the lines below based on the problems number.  Some letters may appear more than once, and some may not appear at all.
