Question

Which of the following is the quotient of .4375 divided by .35

Answer 1

Answer:

Quotient will be 1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

First we convert decimal numbers to fractions. So write down the decimal divided by 1 and then multiply both top and bottom with 10 for every number after decimal point.

Here we found for  .4375  = $\frac{4375}{10000}$

and .35 =   $\frac{35}{100}$

Now we divide both the numbers as

= $\frac{\frac{4375}{1000} }{\frac{35}{100} }$

= $\frac{4375}{1000}$ × $\frac{100}{35}$

= $\frac{125}{100}$

= 1.25

Quotient will be 1.25
