Decimal Addition

Students have copied a set of 6 questions into their math notebooks to complete.

We are learning to keep the decimal in the same position as it appears in the question for the answer.

ex.     3 . 2 cm
    +   5 . 4 cm
    -----------
         8 . 6 cm


Perimeter Word Problem ($2)

I want to build a fence around my house. I know that it is 15 m from the road in front of my house to the end of my yard in the back. I also measured the width of my yard. It is 23.6 m to walk from the neighbours on my right to the neighbours on my left.

Draw my yard with the measurements of all 4 sides. Next, calculate the perimeter of my yard.


Length of sides (^  vertical) _____

Length of sides ( >  horizontal) _____
