Step-by-step solution for: Dividing with Decimal remainders worksheet
Problem Overview:
The task involves performing short division on a series of numbers, where the results may include decimal remainders. The instructions specify that answers should be written up to 2 decimal places.
Example Provided:
The example shows how to perform short division with decimals as remainders:
- Divide \( 487 \) by \( 4 \).
- The result is \( 121.75 \).
Steps for Short Division with Decimals:
1. Perform the division as usual until you reach a remainder.
2. Add a decimal point to the dividend and continue dividing by adding zeros as needed.
3. Round the result to 2 decimal places if necessary.
Solution for Each Problem:
We will solve each division problem step by step.
---
#### 1. \( 6 \div 5837 \)
- Perform the division: \( 5837 \div 6 \).
- Step-by-step:
- \( 6 \) goes into \( 58 \) nine times (\( 9 \times 6 = 54 \)).
- Subtract: \( 58 - 54 = 4 \).
- Bring down \( 3 \): \( 43 \).
- \( 6 \) goes into \( 43 \) seven times (\( 7 \times 6 = 42 \)).
- Subtract: \( 43 - 42 = 1 \).
- Bring down \( 7 \): \( 17 \).
- \( 6 \) goes into \( 17 \) two times (\( 2 \times 6 = 12 \)).
- Subtract: \( 17 - 12 = 5 \).
- Add a decimal point and bring down a zero: \( 50 \).
- \( 6 \) goes into \( 50 \) eight times (\( 8 \times 6 = 48 \)).
- Subtract: \( 50 - 48 = 2 \).
- Bring down another zero: \( 20 \).
- \( 6 \) goes into \( 20 \) three times (\( 3 \times 6 = 18 \)).
- Subtract: \( 20 - 18 = 2 \).
Thus, \( 5837 \div 6 = 972.83 \) (rounded to 2 decimal places).
#### 2. \( 4 \div 3842 \)
- Perform the division: \( 3842 \div 4 \).
- Step-by-step:
- \( 4 \) goes into \( 38 \) nine times (\( 9 \times 4 = 36 \)).
