Question

By showing your work what is the answer to 0.96÷0.144=

Answer 1

Recognize that both 0.96 and 0.144 are divisible by 12:

(0.96/12) / (0.144/12) = 0.08 / 0.012.  This reduces to 0.02 / 0.003, or
20/3 or approx. 6.666.

You could also begin by eliminating the decimal fractions.  Mult. 0.96 and 0.144 each by 1000 results in 960/144.

Since both 960 and 144 can be divided evenly by 24, we get 40 and 6.
40/6 = 20/3, or approx. 6.666, as before.
