Question

PLEASE DIVIDE THE NUMBER ​

Answer 1

We can write this as 0.477 / 18. To make this easier for you, you can start by removing the decimal in the number 0.477, which we can do by multiplying it by 100.

Since that would change the number as a whole, we need to also multiply 18 by 100.

Once we do that, we get 477 / 1800, and you can easily divide that using the basic method.

First, you can use the table of 9 as it is a common factor of both 477 and 1800.

You will then get 53/200, and 53 is a prime number so you could leave it as that OR change it into a decimal number.
