Draggable Decimals is a useful
application for adding, subtracting, and multiplying decimals.
Currently there is an option for dividing decimals, but there
are bugs in the work space that will not allow students to
have room to complete the work part of the problem (if the
answer is done on a separate sheet of paper the system will
check it correctly). For this reason, the division option
is not recommended. In Draggable Decimals, the student can
completely customize problems in addition, subtraction, and
multiplication. This application allows users to drag the
numbers and decimal places to their correct places in the
work portion of the problem. This is especially useful for
students who have trouble keeping columns of numbers organized
in long problems. To try Draggable Decimals, click the picture,
