To solve the decimal division problems, we will perform each division step by step. Here are the solutions:

---

Problem 1: \( 5.2 \div 30.58 \)



1. Adjust the divisor to a whole number: Multiply both the divisor and dividend by 10.
- Divisor: \( 5.2 \times 10 = 52 \)
- Dividend: \( 30.58 \times 10 = 305.8 \)

2. Perform the division: \( 305.8 \div 52 \)
- \( 52 \) goes into \( 305 \) approximately \( 5 \) times.
- \( 52 \times 5 = 260 \)
- Subtract: \( 305 - 260 = 45 \)
- Bring down the next digit: \( 458 \)
- \( 52 \) goes into \( 458 \) approximately \( 8 \) times.
- \( 52 \times 8 = 416 \)
- Subtract: \( 458 - 416 = 42 \)

The quotient is approximately \( 5.88 \).

Answer: \( 5.88 \)

Problem 2: \( 7.5 \div 145.13 \)



1. Adjust the divisor to a whole number: Multiply both the divisor and dividend by 10.
- Divisor: \( 7.5 \times 10 = 75 \)
- Dividend: \( 145.13 \times 10 = 1451.3 \)

2. Perform the division: \( 1451.3 \div 75 \)
- \( 75 \) goes into \( 145 \) approximately \( 1 \) time.
- \( 75 \times 1 = 75 \)
- Subtract: \( 145 - 75 = 70 \)
- Bring down the next digit: \( 701 \)
- \( 75 \) goes into \( 701 \) approximately \( 9 \) times.
- \( 75 \times 9 = 675 \)
- Subtract: \( 701 - 675 = 26 \)
- Bring down the next digit: \( 263 \)
- \( 75 \) goes into \( 263 \) approximately \( 3 \) times.
- \( 75 \times 3 = 225 \)
- Subtract: \( 263 - 225 = 38 \)

The quotient is approximately \( 19.35 \).

Answer: \( 19.35 \)

1. Adjust the divisor to a whole number: Multiply both the divisor and dividend by 100.
- Divisor: \( 68 \times 100 = 6800 \)
- Dividend: \( 288.09 \times 100 = 28809 \)

2. Perform the division: \( 28809 \div 6800 \)
- \( 6800 \) goes into \( 28809 \) approximately \( 4 \) times.
- \( 6800 \times 4 = 27200 \)
- Subtract: \( 28809 - 27200 = 1609 \)

The quotient is approximately \( 4.24 \).

Answer: \( 4.24 \)

Problem 4: \( 100 \div 581.30 \)



1. Adjust the divisor to a whole number: Multiply both the divisor and dividend by 100.
- Divisor: \( 100 \times 100 = 10000 \)
- Dividend: \( 581.30 \times 100 = 58130 \)

2. Perform the division: \( 58130 \div 10000 \)
- \( 10000 \) goes into \( 58130 \) approximately \( 5 \) times.
- \( 10000 \times 5 = 50000 \)
- Subtract: \( 58130 - 50000 = 8130 \)

The quotient is approximately \( 5.81 \).

Answer: \( 5.81 \)

Problem 5: \( 3 \div 281.30 \)



1. Adjust the divisor to a whole number: Multiply both the divisor and dividend by 100.
- Divisor: \( 3 \times 100 = 300 \)
- Dividend: \( 281.30 \times 100 = 28130 \)

2. Perform the division: \( 28130 \div 300 \)
- \( 300 \) goes into \( 28130 \) approximately \( 93 \) times.
