What happens when you are dividing decimals by whole numbers and you get a remainder?
Assuming by "decimals" you mean a number which has digits after a decimal point, then there is no remainder. You can append lots of zeros after the digits after the decimal point without changing the value of the number, and so you can continue the division after the non-zero decimal digits have been used up.
eg 12.3 ÷ 2 gets to 6.1 and you think you have a remainder of 1, but you can append a zero to the 12.3 to get 12.30 without changing its value and now the division can continue to get: 12.30 ÷ 2 = 6.15
If the division does not terminate but ends with one or more digits repeating you can either indicate the repeating digit(s) by a dot over the first and last repeating digits (or over the digit if it is a single repeating digit), or round the answer to an appropriate number of decimal places - the question may tell you which to do.
What else can I help you with?
Is the remainder always less than the quotient when dividing whole numbers?
Yes.
How do you write decimals as numbers?
Decimals are numbers.
Is 629936 numbers is divisible by 101 and 99?
Try dividing it! If you get a whole number (when dividing with a calculator), or no remainder (if using long division), it is divisible. Otherwise it isn't.
What the odd numbers has in common?
Odd numbers are the numbers that are not divisible by two. In other words, if you do an integer division, dividing any odd number by two, you get a remainder of one.
How do you know whether a division problem has a remainder?
You know when you have a remainder once you have divided and all of the spots above the number being divided (the answer) have numbers. If you don't have zero by then, that last number is the remainder. If you want to figure it out without dividing, check a prime numbers chart.
How is dividing decimals different than dividing whole numbers?
in dividing decimals you never get a remainder and in dividing whole numbers you do. +++ More to the point perhaps, you are working in powers of 10 all the time.
How is dividing decimals and dividing whole numbers the same?
If you are making use of long division method, the process of dividing a whole number is actually a subset of the process of dividing the decimals. While dividing both you may get a quotient with decimal places. Some exceptions to this do exist in case of whole numbers. Like when you are dividing 100 by 2, the quotient 50 has no decimal places.
Is the remainder always less than the quotient when dividing whole numbers?
Yes.
How is dividing decimals similar to dividing whole numbers?
In that you carry out exactly the same steps - AND you must determine the correct position of the decimal point.
What is the property of dividing numbers by 3 without remainder?
If you can divide a number by three without a remainder, the number is said to be divisible by 3.
What when you take the whole but some are left?
The numbers left over from dividing a number are called the "remainder".
Are remainders and decimals the same?
no, remainder is left after division and decimal is any number with a decimal (point) in betweenNo. Remainders are the 'left overs' of an imperfect division of a number. Such as ten divided by three would be three, remainder oneDecimals are the 'fractional' part of a number after the decimal point which would be less than a whole number.A remainder left after division is actually a common fraction. The numerator is the remainder and the denominator is the divisor. Any common fraction can be converted into a decimal fraction by dividing the numerator by the denominator, so remainders can be decimals added to the quotient. As examples, dividing 49 by 14 gives a quotient of 3 and a remainder of 7, which can also be written as 3 7/14 and simplified to 3 1/2 or converted to 3.5. Similarly, 114 divided by 10 gives a quotient of 11 and a remainder of 4, which can also be written 11 4/10 and simplified to 11 2/5 or converted to 11.4
How do you find the mean of numbers with decimals?
The Arithmetic Mean is the standard average, achieved by adding the numbers in a set and dividing by the number of numbers in the set. (31 + 25 + 38 + 12 + 15) / 5 = 121/5 = 24.2 Any of the numbers you are finding the mean of can be decimal numbers as well. in other words just add the remainder as a decimal btw tyvm whoevr made this
What are the fundamental operations on whole numbers and decimal?
The fundamental operations on whole numbers and decimals are addition, subtraction, division, and multiplication. However, multiplying and dividing decimals is a bit more complicated because you have to count decimal points to get an accurate answer.
