12 Stretch Your Thinking Look at the division problem

Answer 1

$\boldsymbol{\mathbf{Answer}}$

$\boldsymbol{\mathbf{ 000\, zeros \,will \,be \,in\, quotient }}$

$\boldsymbol{\mathbf{Step-by-step explanation}}$

Given,

$\frac{112}{0.056}$

We know that,  ${56} \times{ 2}$ = 112.

Imagine 1000 is multiplied to numerator and denominator.

Then, we have

=  $\frac{112000}{56}$

So quotient will be 2000

$\boldsymbol{\mathbf{So\, there \,are\, three \,zeros\, in\, quotient}}$
