Question

how to divide 1.2÷4 ​

Answer 1

• As per the data given in the question, we have to determine the value of the given expression.

       Given data:- $1.2\div4.$

       To find:- the value of the given expression.

       Solution:-  

• Here, we will use BODMAS RULE.  
• BODMAS RULE:- It is a correct order to solve the mathematical expression.
• Where, B stands for bracket
• O stands for of
• D stands for divide
• M stands for multiplication
• A stands for addition
• S stands for subtraction.
• Here we will replace decimal by multiplying with $10$ to both numerator and denominator. we get,

         $=\frac{1.2}{4}\\=\frac{1.2\times10}{4\times10}\\=\frac{12}{40}\\=\frac{7}{20}\\= 0.35.$

 Hence, the value will be $0.35.$

Answer 2

As we know that the data given below is provided in the question,

In the above question, it is given that,

The given equation is 1.2÷4.

Here we have to divide the given equation.

We have to use the ratio to divide the equation.

Thus, the given equation can be written in ratio form,

$=\frac{1.2}{4}$

Shifting the decimal to one right to divide we get,

$=\frac{12}{40} \\=\frac{3}{10}$ (when divided by 4)

Therefore we get,$=0.3$

Hence after dividing $\frac{1.2}{4}$ we get the value as 0.3
