Grade 5 learners analyze number lines marked in tenths, hundredths, and thousandths to identify decimal values at given ticks. They compute midpoints, count ticks from benchmarks, round decimals to the nearest tenth, and reason about ascending sequence. Multiple choice and fill-in activities build advanced 5.NBT.3b fluency with magnitude, place value, equivalent decimals, and number line precision. Grade 5 students master decimal positioning.

Comparing and Ordering Decimals
Part A: Multiple Choice
Circle the best answer for each question.
1. On a number line from 0 to 1 with marks every 0.1, what decimal sits at the 7th mark from 0?
A) 0.07
B) 0.7
C) 0.77
D) 7.0
2. A number line from 2 to 3 has marks every 0.05. What value is at the 4th mark past 2?
A) 2.04
B) 2.2
C) 2.20
D) 2.4
3. Between 0.5 and 0.6, a number line has marks every 0.01. What value sits at the 3rd mark past 0.5?
A) 0.503
B) 0.53
C) 0.53 padded — equals 0.530
D) 0.6
4. On a number line from 1.2 to 1.3 marked in thousandths, what value sits 5 ticks past 1.2?
A) 1.205
B) 1.25
C) 1.5
D) 1.025
Part B: Fill in the Blank
Write the correct answer on each line.
1. On a number line from 0 to 1 marked in tenths, the point halfway between 0.3 and 0.4 is 0.35.
2. A number line from 4 to 5 has marks every 0.25. The value at the 3rd mark past 4 is 4.75.
3. If a number line from 0 to 0.1 is divided into 10 equal parts, each tick equals 0.01.
4. Round 0.876 to the nearest tenth. The answer plotted on a number line is 0.9.
5. Between 0.99 and 1.00 on a number line marked in thousandths, the 5th tick past 0.99 is 0.995.
