Decimals<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\"><strong>Step 1: Convert decimals to like decimals.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Decimals that have the same number of digits after the decimal point are called like decimals. 3.42, 2.89, 5.14 are all like decimals because they all have 2 digits after the decimal point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">To make decimals like, we can add zeros on the right of extreme right digits in the decimal part of a number as that does not alter the value.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">For example, 3.4 is the same as 3.40, which is also the same as 3.400.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\"><strong>Step 2:<\/strong> Write the decimals one below the other as per the places of the digits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\"><strong>Step 3: <\/strong>Add starting from the rightmost digit and moving toward the leftmost digit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"
