Represent Decimals on a Number Line with Number Line

To locate a decimal like 0.62 on a number line, start with the greatest place value digit. The digit 6 represents 6 tenths, so divide the distance between 0 and 1 into ten equal segments and move 6 places right of zero. The next greatest digit 2 represents 2 hundredths, so divide the distance between 0.6 and 0.7 into ten equal segments and move 2 places right of 0.6.
