It is: 15.75/0.25 is the same as 1575/25 = 63

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Multiply the divisor by some number to make it a whole number and multiply the dividend by the same number, then the division can be done by normal long division.

The divisor 0.25 has two decimal places, so multiply both divisor and dividend (15.75) by 100:

15.75 ÷ 0.25 = (15.75 × 100) ÷ (0.25 × 100)

= 1575 ÷ 25

= 63

Alternatively you may spot that 0.25 is the same as ¼, so you could multiply both divisor and dividend by 4 before doing the division:

15.75 ÷ 0.25 = (15.75 × 4) ÷ (0.25 × 4)

= 63 ÷ 1

= 63

15.75 / 0.25 = 1575/25 divide numerator and denominator by 5 = 315/5

divide numerator and denominator by 5 = 63.


The last two steps can be combined to divide by 25 but I suspect that you are not up to that.
