4. You have $.90 and you are going to share your money evenly amongst 6 people. How much will each person receive?

5. How did you figure that it would be $0.15 and NOT $15?

6. Remember the parts of a division problem: 545 9 dividend divisor quotient

7. Dividing a Decimal by a Whole Number Place the decimal point in the quotient directly above the decimal point in the dividend. Divide as you normally would

8. Example 512.5.2 10 25 5 25 0

9. Example 2 9101.52.1 9 11 1 9 25 2 18 72 8 72 0

10. Dividing a Decimal by a Decimal Move the decimal point in the divisor to the right, until it becomes a WHOLE number. Move the decimal point in the dividend the same number of places to the right that you moved the decimal point in the divisor. (Remember… what you do to one side, you must do to the other)

11. Example 0.36.72 one space 0367.2 New problem

12. 367.2.2 6 07 2 6 12 4 1 2 0

13. Example 2 3.22.24 3222.4. 32 x 5 160 32 x 8 256 32 x 7 224 7 0

14. Example 3 0.3813.3 The decimal must be moved 2 spaces to the right. When we move this one 2 spaces, we find that we need to add a space. What will we fill it with? Answer: Fill it in with a 0. 13.3 becomes 1330 SO, our problem becomes 038 into 1330. 038 is the same as 38.

15. 381330 38 x 5 190 38 x 4 152 38 x 3 114 3 190 5 190 0

16. Example 4 2.481.3392 248133.92

17. 248133.92. 248 x 5 1240 248 x 6 1488 5 124 0 992 248 x 4 992 4 0

18. Terminating and Repeating Decimals A terminating decimal is a decimal that stops, or terminates. Examples: 1.25 or 0.892 A repeating decimal is a decimal that has a repeating digit or a repeating group of digits. Examples: 1.3333… or.121212121… Repeating decimals usually have a bar across the repeating portion. 2.3

19. 62 8 7 56 6.0. 0 7 56 4 0 0 5 40 0 Terminating decimal
