What is in this set

The numbers in this set run from 0.01 to 0.998.
A careful solution takes 2 written steps on average.
The mistake this set invites most often, in 100% of the problems: the number with more digits after the point was called the larger one; compare place by place from the left instead.
Answers are a short answer exactly as the problem asks for it.

Drawing 240 problems from this page produced 240 different ones, 100% — so a sheet of 20 is a new sheet almost every time.

We would put this in front of a grade 4 class. That is our judgement, not a standard, and it is printed here so you can disagree with it. Everything else we put in that year.
