It is important to make sure the decimal point is in the correct spot because it will keep the numbers aligned; ones to ones, tenths to tenths, hundredths to hundredths, and so on. For example, 2.34+3.28 is 5.62 but without the decimal point, the sum would be 562. That's very confusing because the two numbers are nowhere close to each other. That's why making the decimal point in the correct spot is very important.

O nice answers some of these answers @re old but that's okay :D
