3.125÷25 is 0.125.

Given:

312.5÷25=12.5

To Find:

3.125÷25

Solution:

To divide a decimal number by a whole number, long divide as you would with two whole numbers, but put the decimal point in the answer at the same place it is at in the dividend.

$\frac{312.5}{25} = 12.5$

In 3.125 the decimal point is moved 2 places ahead, therefore,

$\frac{3.125}{25}= 0.125$

which is 2 decimal places ahead of 12.5.

Therefore,3.125÷25 is 0.125.
