2 Example: 7 ÷ 2 We already know 7 3 DIVISION with Decimal Remainders . . 5 0
If there are remainders, add a decimal point and some zeroes then continue dividing. (Usually up to 3 or 4 zeroes will be enough) 2 7 3 rem 1 or 3 ½ 3½ We can now see that
7 ÷ 2
is equal to or 3.5 4 27 ÷ 4 2 0
Add the decimal point and some zeroes and continue dividing. 2 7 6 . . 3 0 7 2 0 5 = 6.75 Answer Fill in the boxes with a digit or decimal point as needed. 5 2 28 ÷ 5 8 carries 4 3 4 5 8 3458 ÷ 4 What happens if the remainders continue on and on....? 3 8 4 5 Note : we still have remainders. Go to next slide. 281.6 or 281.67 From the previous slide we can see that
845 ÷ 3 = 281. 66666666 etc.
This can be written more simply as or 281.66 ( By rounding up, it is closer to 281.67 than 281.66 )
or 281.666 3 6 1 4 614 ÷ 3 READ ≈ 204.67 614 ÷ 3 = 204.66666
or 204.666 Answer is rounded up or 204.6 Note a bar or dot can be used to show that a decimal is repeating . Use a pencil and paper to do the following and enter your answer here. or 5273 ÷ 3 . . Rounded to 2 decimal places Note: the digits after the point are different this time. Use a pencil and paper to calculate this one and then enter your result in the boxes ( only one digit or point per box). ANSWER ≈ Round your answer to 1 decimal place 437 ÷ 7 . or Use a pencil and paper to calculate this one and then enter your result in the boxes ( only one digit or point per box). 374 ÷ 9 rounded to 2 decimal places recurring Type your entire 'rounded' answer in the box Use a pencil and paper to calculate this one and then enter your result in the box. ≈ 757 ÷ 3 Round your answer to 2 decimal places ≈ Use a pencil and paper to calculate this one and then enter your result in the box. 838 ÷ 9 Round your answer to 2 decimal places 5739 ÷ 7 Which of these answers is correct for 819.857 819.44 if the answer is to be rounded correct to 2 decimal places 819.66 819.85 8350 ÷ 4 is equal to |
