Step-by-step solution for: Free Printable Dividing Decimals Worksheet [PDF] Brighterly.com
To solve the problems of dividing whole numbers by decimals, we need to adjust the divisor to make it a whole number. This is done by moving the decimal point in both the divisor and the dividend by the same number of places to the right. Let's solve each problem step by step.
---
1. Move the decimal point in both the divisor (0.09) and the dividend (27) two places to the right:
- Divisor: \( 0.09 \rightarrow 9 \)
- Dividend: \( 27 \rightarrow 2700 \)
2. Now, divide \( 2700 \div 9 \):
\[
2700 \div 9 = 300
\]
Answer: \( 300 \)
---
1. Move the decimal point in both the divisor (0.06) and the dividend (570) two places to the right:
- Divisor: \( 0.06 \rightarrow 6 \)
- Dividend: \( 570 \rightarrow 57000 \)
2. Now, divide \( 57000 \div 6 \):
\[
57000 \div 6 = 9500
\]
Answer: \( 9500 \)
---
1. Move the decimal point in both the divisor (0.4) and the dividend (59) one place to the right:
- Divisor: \( 0.4 \rightarrow 4 \)
- Dividend: \( 59 \rightarrow 590 \)
2. Now, divide \( 590 \div 4 \):
\[
590 \div 4 = 147.5
\]
Answer: \( 147.5 \)
---
1. Move the decimal point in both the divisor (0.8) and the dividend (778) one place to the right:
- Divisor: \( 0.8 \rightarrow 8 \)
- Dividend: \( 778 \rightarrow 7780 \)
2. Now, divide \( 7780 \div 8 \):
\[
7780 \div 8 = 972.5
\]
Answer: \( 972.5 \)
---
1. Move the decimal point in both the divisor (0.06) and the dividend (20) two places to the right:
- Divisor: \( 0.06 \rightarrow 6 \)
- Dividend: \( 20 \rightarrow 2000 \)
2. Now, divide \( 2000 \div 6 \):
\[
2000 \div 6 \approx 333.333
\]
(Round to three decimal places.)
Answer: \( 333.333 \)
---
1. Move the decimal point in both the divisor (0.03) and the dividend (101) two places to the right:
- Divisor: \( 0.03 \rightarrow 3 \)
- Dividend: \( 101 \rightarrow 10100 \)
2. Now, divide \( 10100 \div 3 \):
\[
10100 \div 3 \approx 3366.667
\]
(Round to three decimal places.)
Answer: \( 3366.667 \)
---
1. Move the decimal point in both the divisor (0.6) and the dividend (93) one place to the right:
- Divisor: \( 0.6 \rightarrow 6 \)
- Dividend: \( 93 \rightarrow 930 \)
2. Now, divide \( 930 \div 6 \):
\[
930 \div 6 = 155
\]
Answer: \( 155 \)
---
1. Move the decimal point in both the divisor (0.6) and the dividend (97) one place to the right:
- Divisor: \( 0.6 \rightarrow 6 \)
- Dividend: \( 97 \rightarrow 970 \)
2. Now, divide \( 970 \div 6 \):
\[
970 \div 6 \approx 161.667
\]
(Round to three decimal places.)
Answer: \( 161.667 \)
---
1. Move the decimal point in both the divisor (0.04) and the dividend (12) two places to the right:
- Divisor: \( 0.04 \rightarrow 4 \)
- Dividend: \( 12 \rightarrow 1200 \)
2. Now, divide \( 1200 \div 4 \):
\[
1200 \div 4 = 300
\]
Answer: \( 300 \)
---
\[
\boxed{
\begin{array}{ccc}
1. & 300 & \\
2. & 9500 & \\
3. & 147.5 & \\
4. & 972.5 & \\
5. & 333.333 & \\
6. & 3366.667 & \\
