It depends on the decimal.
Take this one..
4.32
To get rid of all the decimal places you would need to multiply by 100, that would shift the decimal place 2 places to the right.
You would get.
432.
but now you need to 'divide' it by that same number , but not actually perform the division operation.
Like this.
432/100
So you multiplied by 100 and then you divided by 100 and you didn't change its value but only its form.
So the answer is that you divide by what every you multiplied by.
Note: 432/100 is not the fractions lowest form. Both top and bottom can be divided by 4 I believe.

How are decimals and fractions used in your everyday lives?
For starters decimals and fractions are the same thing just wrote diffrently.Decimals will be used in your everyday lives just by going to the store.Such as if you had $1.49 and you wanted to by a bag of chips that costs $1.69,you need to know how much more money you need. For fractions it is almost the same thing but just alittle different.Fractions can be used as easily as inviting guests over for pie.You have 2 pies and 6 people,so divide 6 by 2 and you get 3,so each pie gets cut into 3 pices.So if you see we use decimals and fractions everyday.
