Question

Hunter started with the following model to show the problem 1 . 45 ÷ 5 1 . 45 ÷ 5 . One 10 by 10 flat, 4 rods of 10 cubes , and 5 single cubes are shown. To complete the division model of 1 . 45 ÷ 5 1 . 45 ÷ 5 , how many hundredths would there be in each of the division groups? A. 1 B. 2 C. 5 D. 9

Answer 1

The model Hunter uses makes the division possible given that each

number of digits in a place value are represented by a cube.

• The number of hundredth in each division group is D. 9

Reasons:

The model Hunter started to show the problem is as follows;

Number of 10 by 10 flat = 1

Number of rods of 10 cubes = 4

Number of single cubes = 5

The division is 1.45 ÷ 5, which can be expressed as follows;

$\displaystyle \frac{1.45}{5}$

Given that the 5 cubes represent the .05 in 1.45, we have;

1 cube = 0.01

Dividing each of the set by 5 gives, for each of the division group;

10 by 10 flat ÷ 5 = 10 × 2 flat = 20 cubes = 20 × 0.01 = 0.2

4 rods × 10 cubes ÷ 5 = 40 cubes ÷ 5 = 8 cubes = 8 × 0.01 = 0.08

5 cubes ÷ 5 = 1 cube = 1 × 0.01 = 0.01

Therefore, each of the division group is 0.2 + 0.08 + 0.01 = 0.29

The tenths are the digits after the decimal point to the right.

The hundredths are the digits in the second position after the decimal point to the right.

The number of tenths in each group, (0.2) = 2

There are 2 tenths in each group

The number of hundredths in each group, (0.09) = 9

There are 9 hundredths in each group.

Therefore;

The correct response to the question on how many hundredths would be there in each of the division groups is D. 9
