I will show you visually and mathematically

visually:

.79 / 100

_ _ . 79 since you are dividing by a whole integer, the decimal point is moved to

the left.

100 has two 0s, so the decimal is moved to the left 2 spaces

. _ _ 7 9

Now fill in empty blanks with 0s

. 0 0 7 9

.0079 is the answer

MATHEMATICALLY:

.79/ 100

100 | .79

say, how many times does 100 go into 7? 0 times

0

100 | .79

say how many times does 100 go into 79? 0 times

00

100 | .790 790-700= 90

Say how many times does 100 go into 790? (7)

007

100 | 900

say how many times does 100 go into 900? (9 times)

.0079 this is the answer

100 |.7900
