First lets start with something basic: 3 divided by 4.
Well first you put a zero (because you can't divide it and get a whole number) then a decimal point. After that multiply 3 by 10 and get 30 then do 30 divided by 4 which is 7r2. Then you put the 7 on the deimal point and multiply 2 by 10 which is 20 then do 20 didided by 4 which is 5 then the answer is 0.75.
For example:
3/4=0.75 Working out: Put a 0. then 3*10 (because 4 is bigger than 3) then 30/4=7r2 then put the whole number which is seven on the decimal point then it becomes 0.7 then because you still have the 2 multiply it by 10 which is 20. Then do 20/4 which is 5 then because 5 is the whole number put it on the decimal point then it's 0.75.
