Introduction
In this interview, Ricardo shows that he thinks 9 tenths is
larger than 98 hundredths. He knows that 3.9 is the largest one
decimal place number he can make and that 3.98 is the largest
two decimal place number, but he thinks all amounts of tenths
are larger than all amounts of hundredths. He has no difficulty
selecting 3.01 as the smallest number, as is predicted from his
misconception.
