Practise specific Decimals skills
What Your Child Will Learn
Grade 6 is the year decimal computation becomes fully fluent. Students multiply decimals by decimals, learning to place the decimal point correctly in the product, and divide decimals by both whole numbers and decimals, including adjusting the divisor to a whole number first.
Decimals are applied extensively to ratio, rate, and percent problems — three major Grade 6 themes. Students calculate unit prices, convert measurements, and use decimals in multi-step problems that combine several operations. Order of operations is practised with decimal expressions, and students are expected to choose efficient strategies (mental math, estimation, or the standard algorithm) depending on the numbers involved.
Skills Covered
- Multiplying decimals by decimals
- Dividing decimals by whole numbers and by decimals
- Using decimals in unit rate and unit price problems
- Applying order of operations to decimal expressions
- Estimating decimal products and quotients
- Solving multi-step problems combining decimal operations
Curriculum Aligned: Aligned with Strand B (Number): fluently performing all four operations with decimal numbers and applying them to proportional reasoning.
Parent Tip: Have your child calculate unit prices at the grocery store — 'Which size box of cereal is the better deal per gram?' Real comparisons make decimal division purposeful.
What your child will practice
- Fractions, Decimals, PercentsRepresent and compare fractions, decimal numbers, and percents.

How do decimals connect to fractions?
Decimals are fractions with denominators of 10, 100, 1000, etc. Understanding this connection helps students convert between forms and grasp place value.
What real-life examples use decimals?
Money is the most relatable example. Measurement (meters, kilograms), sports statistics, and temperature also provide practical decimal contexts.
When do students learn decimal operations?
Decimal concepts start in Grade 4 with tenths and hundredths. By Grade 6, students should be comfortable with all four operations involving decimals.
