Question

Explain how can you use base ten blocks to find 2.16 divided by 3

Answer 1

For this question, let's move the decimal number 2 spaces to the right. 2.16-->216 You need 21 ten rods and 6 cubes. Why: I wouldn't do 2 hundred flats because 2 isn't divisible by 3. Put the ten rods into 3 equal group, then do the same with the cubes. You should end up with 7 in each group since 21 divided by 3 is 7. You should also end up with 2 cubes in each group. So in one group you have 72. Now move the decimal back to where it came from, 2 spaces to the left. Now you have 0.72.

Answer 2

The answer is 0.72 because you divide 2.18 by 3 OR You can set the amount of blocks (2.16) out 3 times and count all of them up and that's your answer
