Metric system: In the metric system, numbers to the left of the period are always larger than any number to the right of the period. 0.40 is four tenths whereas 1.0 is ten tenths. (4/10 is slightly less than half of 1) See this web site for basic instruction in the metric system. https://www.mathsisfun.com/measure/metric-system.html
