1 Example Use a place-value chart.
A common garden spider spins a web with its silk
that is about 0.003 millimeter thick. A commonly used
sewing thread is about 0.3 millimeter thick. How does
the thickness of the spider silk and the thread compare?
STEP 1 Write the numbers in a place-value chart.
Ones . Tenths
Hundredths
Thousandths
STEP 2
Count the number of decimal place-value positions to the
digit 3 in 0.3 and 0.003.
0.3 has
fewer decimal places than 0.003
2 fewer decimal places: 10 × 10
times as much as 0.003
0.3 is
of 0.3
0.003 is
times as thick as the garden
So, the thread is
that of the thread.
Divide and round to the nearest hundredth.

213.99 21 =
(Type an integer or a decimal rounded to the nearest hundredth as needed.)
