Not necessarily. When you divide by a fraction, the answer can be bigger than both of them. 6 ÷ 1/5 = 30
Converting percent to decimal?
Divide the percent by 100.
How can you test to determine whether a number is a factor of another numberr?
Divide the smaller number into the bigger number. If the answer comes out even with no remainder, it's a factor.

How do you know whether to multiply or divide when you are converting measurements?
When going from larger to smaller measurements, there will be more of them so it is necessary to multiply. 1 meter = 100 centimeters When going from smaller to larger measurements, there will be fewer of them so it is necessary to divide. 100 centimeters = 1 meter
Do you divide to convert meters?
That depends on what you are converting from. If you are converting from larger units, you multiply. If you are converting from smaller units, you divide.

Divide by the conversion factor to get the equivalent value in the smaller unit.
12 cm converted to m?
Since there are 100 cm in 1 m, you must divide 12 by 100. This gives you 12/100, which can be reduced to 3/25, or 0.12 in decimal form. Whenever you are converting in metric units, you only have to move the decimal based on the different measurements. In this case, a meter is 100 centimeters, so the decimal is moved two places over. Which direction you move it depends on which way you are converting. Converting from a smaller size to a bigger one requires you to move the decimal to the left, and converting from a larger size to a smaller one requires you to move the decimal to the right, adding zeroes as necessary.
