Ashley found 2 boxes of sugar in the kitchen.

The green box says 1.26 kg and the red box says 1.026 kg.

we need to find which box contains more sugar.

To find this we will first check the digit at ones place.

Both the digit has 1 at the ones place. So now check the digit at tenths place.

1.26 has 2 at tenths place while 1.026 has 0 at tenths place.
