Hint: the divisor must be made 'whole' becomes 0.5 Example: 6 ÷ 0.5 is the same as 6÷ ½ 5 Move this point by the same number of places 6 10 . 6 . 1 2 . Learn to Divide Decimals 0 = = 12 ÷½ becomes Divisor must be made 'whole' first by moving the point 2 places to the right 0 . 0 4 Example: 3.468 ÷ 0.04 4 0 8 6 . 7 3 4 6 . 8 3. 4 6 8 3 then move this point right by the same number of places 2 2 Answer becomes Fill in each box with only one digit or a decimal point as needed. 0 . 5 2. 3 3 6 5 5 2.3365 ÷ 0.5 45.6028 ÷ 0.004
In this question you would first need to move the decimal point 3 places to the right 3 places to the left 4 places to the right 4 places to the left In this question the decimal point would
not be moved at all be moved one place to the left be moved one place to the right 8.4 ÷ 12 becomes 12 8 . 4 8 . 4 ÷ 1 2 Fill in each box with only one digit or a decimal point as needed becomes 0.2 0.6 ÷ 0.2 0 . 6 Answer 36.48 ÷ 0.02 is equal to Hint: you may need to set this out on paper first 1 . 8 2 4 1 8 . 2 4 1 8 2 4 0 . 1 8 2 4 becomes Example : 6.4 ÷ 0.004 0 . 0 0 4 6 . 4 4 6 4 0 0 . 1 6 0 0 . Note : we had to add some zeroes this time 0 0 ANSWER becomes Fill in one digit per box 0.0 0 2 5.8 ÷ 0.002 5 . 8 35.5 ÷ 0.05 is equal to You may need to use pen and paper to do this one 7.10 710 7.1 0.71 You may need to use pen and paper to do this one = 0.18 ÷ 3 You may need to use pen and paper for this one = 0.48 ÷ 1.2 You may need to use pen and paper for this one = 23.8 ÷ 0.2 You may need to use pen and paper for this one = 81.18÷ 0.9 You may need to use pen and paper for this one = 0.48 ÷ 8 You may need to use pen and paper for this one 64 ÷ 0.04 = You may need to use pen and paper for this one = 34.686 ÷ 0.02 You should use pen and paper for this one. = 16.6435 ÷0.5 You should use pen and paper for this one. = 564.76 ÷ 0.4 The answer is 2.484 ÷ 0.6 becomes the same as ÷ 6 |
