Step-by-step solution for: Dividing Decimals Worksheets
The task involves solving division problems involving decimals, with the results rounded to up to three decimal places. Below is a step-by-step explanation of how to solve these problems.
1. Adjust the Divisor: If the divisor is a decimal, move the decimal point to the right to make it a whole number. Move the decimal point in the dividend the same number of places to the right.
2. Perform Long Division: Divide as you would with whole numbers.
3. Place the Decimal Point: The decimal point in the quotient should be directly above the decimal point in the adjusted dividend.
4. Round to Three Decimal Places: If the quotient has more than three decimal places, round it to three decimal places.
