             Worked example 1
                                                                    compose                decompose
             Find the missing numbers.
                                                                    decimal                hundredth

             a  0.9 ×         = 9                                   decimal place          place value

                                                                    decimal point          tenth
             b  350 ÷          = 3.5



             a     100s    10s      1s     10 s    100 s        Use a place value grid to help you.
                                                    1
                                            1
                                                                To move digits one column to the left
                                     0       9                  you multiply by 10.


                                     9



                 0.9 × 10 = 9


             b                              1       1           To move digits two columns to the
                   100s    10s      1s     10 s    100 s        right you divide by 100.

                    3        5       0


                                     3       5       0


                 350 ÷ 100 = 3.5
