Step-by-step explanation:
for easier division, convert the divisor into a whole number by moving the decimal point. The number of times you move to right is the number of times you move to the left for the dividend.
Example: 294.45 ÷ 0.1 = ?
for the divisor (which is 0.1), move the decimal once to the right to make it a whole number. it would be equal to 1
since you moved once, you have to move once also for the dividend but this time to the left, making it 29.445.
the equation then becomes: 29.445 ÷ 1 = ?
count the number of decimal places for both dividend and divisor. The total number of decimal places should be the same for the answer.
