Writing Decimals in Word Form (Word) Worksheet Download
This worksheet puts a decimal inside a short sentence about a race time, a lap time or a measurement, then asks which choice writes it in word form. All four choices use the same digits and differ only in the place value they name - one leaves the place off entirely, one says ones, one names the wrong decimal place - so the question cannot be answered by matching numerals. Numbers go to tenths or hundredths.
