What is the shortcut for dividing a number by a multiple of 10?
The multiple of ten can be reduced to the smaller number by moving the decimal place of the numerator one place to the left. However, this may only be a marginal short cut. For example, dividing 1256 by 3450 is equivalent to dividing 125.6 by 345 but that is hardly a shortcut!
What shortcut can be used to change a percent to a decimal and why?
Move the decimal point two places to the left. It is the same as dividing by 100.
When multiplying or dividing by a power of 10 what is the shortcut?
Move the decimal point, the same number of places as the power of 10. That way ---> to multiply. This way <--- to divide.
