Remember: One whole is ten tenths. Each bead on the row is one tenth, and we write tenths after a point: 0.1, 0.2 and so on.
Read and answer
Read the story, then answer.
The chocolate barMia and Ben find a chocolate bar made of ten equal squares. The whole bar is one whole, and each square is one tenth. A row of ten beads is like the bar: the whole row is one whole and each bead is one tenth. Mia eats two squares, so two beads slide across. That is two tenths, and we write it 0.2. Ben eats four squares. Now six tenths are gone and four tenths are left.
