There are several ways such as
255 $\frac{1}{2}$ / 7

First put it in the decimal equation
Since there is a decimal in the number being divided(255.5), you move the decimal so that it is a whole number(2555) but since you move the decimal place once, you do the same to the 7 so that it is now 70. So now it's 2555/70 which looks like 365 but then, you have to place the decimal value so that it is now 36.5
This is what you use to divide as shown.

Mr. Frank has 1.08 kilograms of fertilizer for the plants in his nursery. He wants every plant to get 93 mg of fertilizer 4 time

joja [24]

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

First and foremost, we should know that: 1 kilogram = 1,000,000 milligrams

Therefore, 1.08kg will be converted to milligram and this will be:

= 1.08 × 1,000,000 milligrams

= 1,080,000 milligrams

Since every plant gets 93mg of fertilizer, the number of plants that can be fertilized will be:

= 1,080,000 / 93

= 11612.903

Therefore, 11612 plants can be fertilized.

The fertilizer left over will be:

= 1,080,000 - (11612 × 93)

= 1080000mg - 1079916mg

= 84 mg
