Steps to Dividing Decimals
1. Write out the problem
2. Move the Decimals (To make the divisor a whole number)
TO THE RIGHT
TO THE RIGHT
AND THEN UP
3. Divide
4. If you have a remainder, keep adding zeros until you don't have a remainder anymore or it is repeating
__________________
NO decimal in the divisor, just move the decimal up.
_____________________________________________
If you have to move the decimal two places, but there are no more numbers, add a zero.
You keep getting a remainder of one, so you keep adding zeros...... but you keep getting one, so you know it is a repeating decimal of three.
