Tips for successful practice with children
💡 Always make sure the decimal points are in a straight line (one below the other).
💡 You can add zeros at the end of a number to 'align' the lengths (e.g., 0.5 becomes 0.50).
💡 In subtraction, if a digit is missing on top, you must add 0 to avoid mistakes in borrowing.
