Question

1. draw place value disks on the place value chart to solve. show each step in the standard algorithm.

a. 0.7÷4 =

ones • tenths hundredths thousandths

4|0.7

b. 8.1÷5 =

ones • tenths hundredths thousandths

5|8.1

Explanation:

Step1: Convert division to fraction

For \(0.7\div4\), we can write it as \(\frac{0.7}{4}\). Multiply both numerator and denominator by 10 to get \(\frac{7}{40}\).

Step2: Calculate the result

\(7\div40 = 0.175\)

For \(8.1\div5\), write it as \(\frac{8.1}{5}\). Multiply both numerator and denominator by 10 to get \(\frac{81}{50}\).

Step3: Calculate the result

\(81\div50=1.62\)

Answer:

a. \(0.175\)
b. \(1.62\)
