Make the divisor a whole number by moving the decimal point to the right and move the decimal point in the dividend to the right the same amount; now do the division. For example to divide 19.67 by 3.5: to make 3.5 a whole number, move decimal point 1 place to the right to give 35, so move decimal point of 19.67 to the right one place to give 196.7 Now do 196.7 divided by 35 to give 5.62 Example: to divide 196 by 2.5: To make 2.5 a whole number, move the decimal point 1 place to the right to give 25, So move the decimal point of 196 to the right 1 place to give 1960. Now do 1960 divided by 25 to give 78.4 When moving the decimal point in the dividend to the right, if you run out of digits before you've moved enough places, add zeros so that the decimal point moves the correct number, for example: To divide 1234.5 by 2.345: To make 2.345 a whole number the decimal point must move right 3 places to give 2345 so move decimal point of 1234.5 right 3 places, but after 1 place we have 12345 with 2 more places to move, so add 2 zeros to give 1234500 Now divide 1234500 by 2345.

The decimal point moves 3 places to the right.
The result of dividing 700,000,000 by 37 is approximately 18,918,919. The division can be done by dividing the whole number part of the dividend (700,000,000) by the divisor (37) and then adding any remaining decimal places of the dividend divided by the divisor.
If the dividend is between 2.25*10k and 10k+1 where k is any integer, then the decimal point does not move while if the dividend is between 10k and 2.25*10k then the decimal point moves 1 place to the left.
That is because if you do the same thing to the divisor as the dividend then nothing changes. Say you have 2 divided by 4; if you multiply both by 10 you have 20/40 which is the same thing. So if you have 2.36 divided by 4.19 that is the same as 236/419 since you multiplied both by 100.
Because not to do so would change the relationship between them 3.45/12.3 = 345/1230 = 0.2805 (approx) If you multiplied the dividend by 100 and the divisor by ten (doing just enoguh to remove the decimal places) then the relationship (the ratio) changes 345/ 123 = 2.8049 (approx)
To divide by a decimal, make the divisor a whole number by moving the decimal point to the right; the dividend must also be changed by moving its decimal point the same number of digits to the right. So to divide 0.5 by 0.57, make the divisor 0.57 into 57 by moving the decimal point two digits to the right, then also move the decimal point of the dividend (0.5) two places to the right to give 50. Thus: 0.5 / 0.57 = 50 / 57 ~= 0.88
Moving a decimal point to the right is the same as multiplying a number by a power of ten. As long as both numbers are multiplied by the same amount, they will retain their same relationship.

It really depends on what type of symbol you use (ex. X + - /), but for division you can move the decimal place over for both numbers (the dividend and the divisor) until both numbers are whole and do normal division and then after you would count how many places you moved the decimal place and move the decimal place that many times (to the left) to get your answer. Hope This Helps! ^.^
If you move the decimal point the same direction and number of places for the dividend and the divisor, this accomplishes the same thing as multiplying (or dividing) a numerator and denominator by the same number (in this case it is a power of ten). Moving the decimal place to the right by one place effectively multiplies the number by 10, and moving the decimal place to the left by one place is the same as dividing the number by 10. Example: 12345.6 / 10 = 1234.56
