Perform Operations With Decimals Practice Test

A ribbon is $4.80$ meters long. It is cut into $3$ equal pieces. Using place value, you can think of $4.80$ as $480$ hundredths and share equally. (Decimal operations rely on place value understanding.) What is $4.80 \div 3$?

A hiker walked $5.08$ km on Monday and $3.90$ km on Tuesday. To find how much farther Monday was, subtract by aligning decimals: $5.08 - 3.90$.
