About the Basic Decimal Operations Worksheet

This interactive and printable worksheet, that aligns with the Common Core State Standards, 5.NBT.A.3.B-1, focuses on fundamental decimal addition and subtraction operations. Through ten carefully structured problems, students practice working with decimal numbers up to hundredths place value. The material alternates between addition and subtraction problems, helping students develop fluency in both operations while maintaining place value alignment and decimal point positioning.

The worksheet presents a progression of problems that include varying levels of complexity, from simple decimal additions like 0.98 + 0.04 to more challenging subtractions such as 7.05 - 3.24. By working with numbers that have different decimal places, students strengthen their understanding of place value importance in decimal operations. The problems require careful attention to decimal point alignment and reinforce the concept that decimal operations follow the same principles as whole number operations while maintaining proper place value positioning.
