Question

If 45.78 ÷ 1.7 is written in long division form as long division set up where 17 is on the outside of the division symbol and 45780 is on the inside so that the divisor is written as a whole number, where should the decimal point be placed in the dividend? Between the 4 and the 5 Between the 5 and the 7 Between the 7 and the 8 Between the 8 and the 0

Answer 1

Answer:

457.8 ( Between 7 and 8 )

Step-by-step explanation:

If you multiply the divisor by 10, then you should multiply the dividend with 10 too. Hence,

1.7 x 10 = 17

45.78 x 10 = 457.8
