Because it helps to see which one is greater, For example: if you line up 0.079 and 0.127 you can easily tell that 0.0127 is greater because it is closer to a hole number. Another example: 0.1 and 0.3, obviously 0.3 is greater. in conclusion, the reason you line up the decimal points is to make it easier to see which numbers are greater, which helps you compare and order easily!
I believe the answer is 54%.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
7(6m - 4) = -364
multiply 7 for both variables in the parenthesis
42m - 28 = -364
move 28 to other side
42m= -336
divide 42 on both sides
m= -8
