 DISCUSSION
The solution to the word problem is:
5.75 ÷0.1 = N
5.75 ÷ 0.1 = 57.5
Why

1. Move the decimal point in the divisor going to the right to

make it whole number.
2. Move also the decimal point in the dividend, equal to the
number of significant places move in the divisor
3. Copy the dividend as the final answer showing the new
placement of decimal point in the answer
 ACTIVITY NO. 1
Solve for N. Divide as fast as you can.
a. 24.25 ÷ 0.1 = N
b. 531.4 ÷ 0.01 = N
c. 5.433 ÷ 0.001 =
d. 0.45 ÷ 0.1 = N
e. 2.143 ÷ 0.001 = N
 ACTIVITY NO. 2
•Divide mentally.
1) When 37.38 is divided by
0.001, the quotient is _____.
2) Find the quotient of 1.6833
divided by 0.01.
3) The quotient of 57.65 divided
by 0.1 is ________.
 GENERALIZATION
How do you divide decimals by 0.1, 0.01, or
0.001?
1. Move the decimal point in the divisor
going to the right to make it whole
number.
2. Move also the decimal point in the
dividend, equal to the number of
significant places move in the divisor
3. Copy the dividend as the final answer
showing the new placement of decimal
point in the answer
 EVALUATION
