How is dividing a decimal by a whole number similar to dividing a whole number by a whole number?

Division is the same whether you use whole numbers or decimals. You could make the decimal into a whole number. Look at an example 35 ÷ 0.25 which can be written as 35/0.25 Next multiply top and bottom by the same number to get rid of the decimal. This becomes 3500/25 or 3500 ÷ 25, and then you can continue division in the usual way.
