0.6 ÷ 48, write the answer as a decimal?

Answer 1

48)0.600000 = 0.0125

The method to do this is: -

#1 ; 48 in to zero = 0 ( answer to left of decimal point)

#2 ; Carry decimal point into answer.

#3 ; 48 in to '6' won't go ( So zero to right of decimal point)

#4 ; 48 in to '60' goes '1' remainder of '12'. (So '1' to right of decimal zero)

#5 ; Then say 48 into 120 ( 120 is made up of remainder '12' and second decimal zero). Goes '2' remainder '24'. ( So '2' to the right of the decimal '1').

#6 ; Then say 48 into 240 (240 is made up of remainder '2' and third decimal zero). Goes '5' , with no remainder.

Hence 0.0125 is the answer.

Another way way is to convert both to fractions, and then divide by fractions and convert back to decimal.

Hence

0.6 = 6/10 and 48 = 48/1

Hence (6/10) divide ( 48/1) =

6/10 X 1/48

Cancel down by '6'

1/10 X 1/8 = 1/80 = 0.0125 As before.

Hope that helps!!!!!!
