It all depends on the divisor.

You need to make sure the decimal of the divisor is at the end.

For example, 2.09 divided by 0.19

You need to move the decimal point of 0.19 two times to the right so the decimal point is at the end.

If the divisor is a whole number, the decimal would stay at the same position.

For example, 25.5 divided by 5, the decimal would stay since 5's decimal point is already at the end (5.)

See attachment if you want to see it visual. Writing on computer is hard tho.

Answer:

Take note that the quotient's decimal point is precisely above the dividend's decimal point. To divide a decimal by a whole number, move the decimal point in the quotient above the decimal point in the dividend and divide as usual.

Help me solve this equation. Find f(x)-g(x)
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

- 2x³

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) - g(x)

= x^{\frac{1}{2} } - x - (2x³ - x^{\frac{1}{2} } - x) ← distribute parenthesis by - 1

= x^{\frac{1}{2} } - x - 2x³ + x^{\frac{1}{2} } + x ← collect like terms )

= - 2x³

27millimeters. 1cm/10mm
Alla [95]
If you would like to know how many centimeters are 27 millimeters, you can calculate this using the following steps:

1 cm ... 10 mm
x cm = ? ... 27 mm

1 * 27 = 10 * x
27 = 10 * x    /10
x = 27/10
x = 2.7 cm

The correct result would be 2.7 cm.
