Add the whole numbers first, then add the decimal parts. For example, 1.5 + 3.6 - 2.4 = (1 + 3 - 2) + (0.5 + 0.6 - 0.4) = 2 + 0.7 = 2.7
With numbers less than 1,000, add the hundreds first, then the tens and then the units. For example: 120 + 360 + 25 + 8 = (100 + 300) + (20 + 60 + 20) + (5 + 8) = 400 + 100 + 13 = 513

If you don't get 10 out of 10 the first time you play the quiz, don't worry. Try it again until you have a good grasp of this important aspect of Math. Good luck!

2.3 + 5.6 + 12.3 = ?

[ ]	19.1
[ ]	20.1
[x]	20.2
[ ]	20.3

Add the whole numbers first, then add the decimal parts. 2.3 + 5.6 + 12. 3 = (10) + (2 + 5 + 2) + (0.3 + 0.6 + 0.3) = 10 + 9 + 1.2 = 20.2

120.3 + 23.4 + 8.6 = ?

[ ]	152.4
[ ]	150.2
[ ]	151.3
[x]	152.3

Add the whole numbers first, then add the decimal parts. 120.3 + 23.4 + 8.6 = (100) + (20 + 20) + (3 + 8) + (0.3 + 0.4 + 0.6) = 100 + 40 + 11 + 1.3 = 152.3

345.9 + 38.6 - 17.2 = ?

[x]	367.3
[ ]	376.3
[ ]	367.4
[ ]	365.3

345.9 + 38.6 - 17.2 = (300) + (40 + 30 - 10) + (5 + 8 - 7) + (0.9 + 0.6 - 0.2) = 300 + 60 + 6 + 1.3 = 367.3

69.9 - 40.6 + 123.4 = ?

[ ]	152.8
[ ]	152.6
[x]	152.7
[ ]	152.5

69.9 - 40.6 + 123.4 = (100) + (60 + 20 - 40) + (9 + 3) + (0.9 + 0.4 - 0.6) = 100 + 40 + 12 + 0.7 = 152.7

200 + 158.3 + 28.9 = ?

[ ]	378.2
[x]	387.2
[ ]	387.1
[ ]	387.0

200 + 158.3 + 28.9 = (200 + 100) + (50 + 20) + (8 + 8) + (0.3 + 0.9) = 300 + 70 + 16 + 1.2 = 387.2

128.7 + 450.3 - 15.2 + 200 = ?

[ ]	763.9
[ ]	763.7
[x]	763.8
[ ]	763.6

128.7 + 450.3 - 15.2 + 200 = (100 + 400 + 200) + (20 + 50 - 10) + (8 - 5) + (0.7 + 0.3 - 0.2) = 700 + 60 + 3 + 0.8 = 763.8

0.8 + 0.2 + 0.7 = ?

[ ]	1.5
[ ]	1.2
[ ]	0.7
[x]	1.7

0.8 + 0.2 + 0.7 = (0.8 + 0.2) + 0.7 = 1 + 0.7 = 1.7. Be on the LOOKOUT for decimals that sum to 1

678.1 - 345.2 = ?

[ ]	332.8
[ ]	332.7
[ ]	323.9
[x]	332.9

678.1 - 345.2 = (600 - 300) + (70 - 40) + (8 - 5) + (0.1 - 0.2) = 300 + 30 + 3 - 0.1 = 333 - 0.1 = 332.9: Note: with negative numbers, the negative sign is kept with each part of the number, e.g. - 678.6 is written as -600, -70, -8, and -0.6

8.8 - 6.4 - 8.8 + 19.6 = ?

[x]	13.2
[ ]	31.2
[ ]	13.1
[ ]	13.0

8.8 - 6.4 - 8.8 + 19.6 = (10) + (9 - 6) + (0.6 - 0.4) = 10 + 3 + 0.2 = 13.2: don't waste time writing numbers that cancel each other out, e.g. 8.8 - 8.8 = 0

23.5 - 14.9 + 146.2 = ?

[ ]	145.8
[x]	154.8
[ ]	154.7
