trick is to get rid of the decimal point from the number we are dividing by.
How? We can "shift the decimal point" out of the way by multiplying by 10, as many times as we need to.
But we must do the same thing to both numbers in the division.
Example: 15 divided by 0.2
Let us multiply the 0.2 by 10, which shifts the decimal point out of the way:
0.2 × 10 = 2
But we must also do it to the 15:
15 × 10 = 150
So 15 ÷ 0.2 has become 150 ÷ 2 (they are both 10 times larger):
150 ÷ 2 = 75
And so the answer is:
15 ÷ 0.2 = 75
The number we divide by is called the divisor.
