3-8 Dividing by Decimals Helpful Hint Course 1 3-8 Dividing by Decimals Multiplying the divisor and the dividend by the same number does not change the quotient. 42 ÷ 6 = 7 10  10 420 ÷ 60 = 7  10  10 4,200 ÷ 600 = 7 Helpful Hint

Additional Example 1A: Dividing a Decimal by a Decimal Course 1 3-8 Dividing by Decimals Additional Example 1A: Dividing a Decimal by a Decimal Find each quotient. A. 5.2 ÷ 1.3 Multiply the divisor and dividend by the same power of ten. 1.3 5.2 4 There is one decimal place in the divisor. Multiply by 101, or 10. Think: 1.3 x 10 = 13 5.2 x 10 = 52 13 52 –52 Divide.

Additional Example 1B: Dividing a Decimal by a Decimal Course 1 3-8 Dividing by Decimals Additional Example 1B: Dividing a Decimal by a Decimal B. 61.3 ÷ 0.36 Make the divisor a whole number by multiplying the divisor and dividend by 102, or 100. 0.36 61.3 Think: 0.36 x 100 = 36 61.3 x 100 = 6,130 36 6,130.000

Understand the Problem Course 1 3-8 Dividing by Decimals Additional Example 2: Problem Solving Application After driving 216.3 miles, the Yorks used 10.5 gallons of gas. On average, how many miles did they drive per gallon of gas? 1 Understand the Problem The answer will be the average number of miles per gallon. List the important information: They drove 216.3 miles. They used 10.5 gallons of gas.

3-8 Dividing by Decimals 2 Make a Plan Course 1 3-8 Dividing by Decimals 2 Make a Plan Solve a simpler problem by replacing the decimals in the problem with whole numbers. If they drove 10 miles using 2 gallons of gas, they averaged 5 miles per gallon. You need to divide miles by gallons to solve the problem. Solve 3 Multiply the divisor and dividend by 10. Think: 10.5 x 10 = 105 216.3 x 10 = 2,163 Place the decimal point in the quotient. Divide. 10.5 216.3 The York family averaged 20.6 miles per gallon.

3-8 Dividing by Decimals Look Back 4 Course 1 3-8 Dividing by Decimals Look Back 4 Use compatible numbers to estimate the quotient. 216.3 ÷ 10.5 220 ÷ 11 =20 The answer is reasonable since 20.6 is close to the estimate of 20.

Understand the Problem Course 1 3-8 Dividing by Decimals Try This: Example 2 After driving 191.1 miles, the Changs used 10.5 gallons of gas. On average, how many miles did they drive per gallon of gas? 1 Understand the Problem The answer will be the average number of miles per gallon. List the important information: They drove 191.1 miles. They used 10.5 gallons of gas.

3-8 Dividing by Decimals 2 Make a Plan Course 1 3-8 Dividing by Decimals 2 Make a Plan Solve a simpler problem by replacing the decimals in the problem with whole numbers. If they drove 10 miles using 2 gallons of gas, they averaged 5 miles per gallon. You need to divide miles by gallons to solve the problem. Solve 3 Multiply the divisor and dividend by 10. Think: 10.5 x 10 = 105 191.1 x 10 = 1,911 Place the decimal point in the quotient. Divide. 10.5 191.1 The York family averaged 18.2 miles per gallon.

3-8 Dividing by Decimals Look Back 4 Course 1 3-8 Dividing by Decimals Look Back 4 Use compatible numbers to estimate the quotient. 191.1 ÷ 10.5 190 ÷ 10 = 19 The answer is reasonable since 18.2 is close to the estimate of 19.
