How do you divide decimals?

Mathematics

It's the same as normal division. All you need to do is add the decimal in. Let me show you:

2.5/2
2/2 What's 2 divided by 2? It's <em><u>1</u></em><em><u>.</u></em>
.5/2 What's 5 divided by 2? <u>2.5</u>, right? But since it's .5 (not 5) divided by 2, the decimal goes somewhere else.<em> Since the 5 comes just to the right of the decimal, so will the <u>25</u>. You have </em><em><u>.25</u></em><u>.</u>

<em><u>1 + .25 = 1.25</u><u /></em>. And that's the answer! 2.5/2=1.25. See how I broke it up into pieces? It makes life easier.

Solve for y. -3/y=6 Simplify your answer as much as possible.
Molodets [167]
Solving for "y" means that we need to get y to be on one side of the equation. It should look like y= something. To get the y by itself, we need to get rid of that -3. To do that, we'll have to divide by -3 (because even though there's a y being divided, the -3 is still the numerator). 6/-3 is -1/2. Therefore your answer is y=-1/2
