When you divide, the number you are dividing is the dividend, the number you are dividing by is the divisor, and the answer is the quotient. Anything that is left over is the remainder. | Example: 14/6=2 R.2 |
When you divide a decimal you bring the decimal straight up unless it is outside the box.Tip the / sign is a division sign. | Example: 2/.6=.3 |
3/.12 | .4 |
9/.81= | .9 |
5/.60= | .12 |
6/.36= | .6 |
12/.96= | .8 |
12/.108= | .9 |
When you divide fractions you don't really divide them you multiply. The first step is to flip the fraction to the right. Then you multiply. | Example: 1/2 / 1/4= 4/2 or 2 1/2 * 4/1= 4/2 or 2 |
3/4 / 2/6= | 18/24 or 3/4 |
2/3 / 3/4 = | 8/9 |
1/2 / 6/8= | 8/12 or 2/3 |
3/4 / 5/6= | 18/20 or 9/10 |
7/8 / 4/5= | 35/32 or 1 3/32 |
8/9 / 7/8= | 64/63 or 1 1/63 |
2/3 / 3/4= | 8/9 |
1/5 / 1/4= | 4/5 |
1/3 / 1/7= | 7/3 or 2 1/3 |
2/5 / 7/12= | 24/35 |
