Question

A one digit number divided by another one digit number gives 0.6. What are the number?

Answer 1

Answer:

3 and 5

Step-by-step explanation:

0.6 can be written as 6 / 10 that can be further simplified as 3 / 5. Hence, 3 and 5 are single digit numbers that will result as 0.6 when 3 is divided by 5.

Answer 2

Given data:

A one digit number divided by another one digit number gives 0.6

To find:

The numbers

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the required solution, let us express the decimal number as a fraction.

Here, 0.6 = 6/10 [ we have taken 10 because the decimal expression has only tenths place ]

We have to find the numbers with only one digit but 10 has two digits. 6 = 2 × 3 and 10 = 2 × 5. We see that 2 is a common term for 6 and 10. So we can divide both the numerator and the denominator by 2.

Thus 6/10 further simplifies into 3/5, where both 3 and 5 are one digit numbers.

Answer:

The required numbers are 3 and 5, where 3/5 = 0.6.
