A Decimal Game

Copy onto cards the decimals below. Shuffle the cards and divide them evenly. Sit facing your partner and place your cards in front of you, face down in a pile.

Each partner places his or her top card face up in the middle. The partner with the greater decimal takes both cards and places them in a separate pile. (When your original pile of cards runs out, shuffle the cards in the second pile and use them.) Continue in this way until one partner has all the cards.
