To move the decimal you must move the decimal in the divisor all the way to the right to make it a whole number. Then in the dividend, you move that decimal to the right the same amount of spaces you did in the divisor.
If you have a fraction, divide the top by the bottom to get the decimal. If you have a decimal, move the decimal point 2 places that way --> to get the percent. If you have percent, move the decimal point 2 places this way <-- to get the decimal.
Left or right.
It is 2 metres. A decimal is a way of representing a number in such a way that the place value of each digit is ten times that of the digit to its right. A decimal representation does not require a decimal point.
The answer is 25 metres (or meters if you happen to be from the US), exactly as in the question.A decimal number is simply a way of representing a number in such a way that the place value of each digit is ten times that of the digit to its right. A decimal representation does not require a decimal point. Adding zeros after the decimal point is wrong because they imply a degree of accuracy (significant figures) for which there is no justification.
