What this worksheet covers
60 decimals problems fill this timed drill page; problem 21 asks "Round 74.23 to the nearest tenth.", and the sheet stays at that level throughout. Within that, operands run to two decimal places, so the decimal points have to be lined up rather than the right-hand digits and the numbers run as high as 87.98. Further down, problem 41 asks "Write 0.23 as a percent.". It is written against Common Core 5.NBT.7 — Number & Operations in Base Ten, grade 5.
Skills practised
The grade 6 decimals sequence covers multiplying and dividing decimals by decimals, and multi-digit decimal sums and differences; this page sits inside it. Specifically, the problems practise multiplying decimals by whole numbers, decimals and percents, and rounding decimals. Working the page asks a student to keep the decimal points aligned.
About the timed drill format
With 60 short problems such as problem 21, "Round 74.23 to the nearest tenth." and a timer box, this page measures recall rather than method — write the time down, and aim to beat it on Set B. Quick decimal comparisons and small sums are the fluency that keeps multi-step decimal work from stalling.
Set A, Set B and Set C
The three sets come from the same generator with three different seeds: same skill, same layout, fresh numbers, and an answer key computed with the problems. Where Set A's problem 31 is "8.27 × 11", Set B's is "7.71 × 2".
How to use this worksheet
Have the student estimate before computing, then compare. At grade 6 an decimals answer that is wildly off should announce itself, and building that reflex matters as much as the 60 answers. Print Set B of this decimals timed drill before writing on Set A; the same skill worked twice a week apart tells you far more than once.
