This schematic reminds readers of the position of these terms in the division process.
Now that these terms are defined, we begin the discussion of division of decimal numbers. Suppose that we wish to divide 637 by 100. We could do this in fraction form, change the result to a mixed fraction, then the mixed fraction to decimal form.
\[\frac{637}{100} = 6 \frac{37}{100} = 6.37\nonumber \]
We can also arrange the division much as we would the division of two whole numbers.
Note that adding two zeros after the decimal point in the dividend does not change the value of 637. Further, note that we proceed as if we are dividing two whole numbers, placing the decimal point in the quotient directly above the decimal point in the dividend.
These observations lead to the following algorithm.
To divide a decimal number by a whole number, proceed as follows:
- Set up the long division as you would the division of two whole numbers.
- Perform the division as if the numbers were both whole numbers, adding zeros to the right of the decimal point in the dividend as necessary to complete the division.
- Place the decimal point in the quotient immediately above the decimal point in the dividend.
Divide 23 by 20.
Solution
Arrange as if using long division to divide whole numbers, adding enough zeros to the right of the decimal point in the dividend to complete the division.
Hence, 23 divided by 20 is 1.15.
Usually, one does not immediately see how many zeros to the right of the decimal point in the dividend are needed. These zeros are usually added at each step of the division, until the division is completed or the user is willing to terminate the process and accept only an estimate of the quotient.
Divide: 155.2 ÷ 25.
Solution
Arrange as if using long division to divide whole numbers, and begin.
We still have a nonzero remainder. Adding another zero does no good.
However, if we add one more additional zero, the division completes with a zero remainder.
Thus, 155.2 divided by 25 is 6.208.
Divide: 42.55 ÷ 23

Decimal Divisors When the divisor contains a decimal point, we have a little work to do before we begin the division process. Suppose that we wish to divide 1.25 by 2.5. In fraction form, we could start with
\[ \frac{1.25}{2.5},\nonumber \]
then clear the decimals from the denominator by multiplying both numerator and denominator by 10. Note: Recall that multiplying by 10 moves the decimal point one place to the right.
\[ \begin{aligned} \frac{1.25}{2.5} = \frac{1.25 \cdot 10}{2.5 \cdot 10} \\ = \frac{12.5}{25} \end{aligned}\nonumber \]
Thus, dividing 1.25 by 2.5 is equivalent to dividing 12.5 by 25. This we know how to do.
Thus, 1.25 divided by 2.5 is 0.5.
Never write .5. Always add the leading zero in the ones place and write 0.5.
Instead of working in fraction form, we can take care of positioning the decimal point in the long division framework. Start with:
Move the decimal point in the divisor to the end of the divisor, then move the decimal point in the dividend an equal number of places.
Thus, the division becomes
and we proceed as above to find the quotient. This discussion motivates the following algorithm.
If the divisor contains a decimal, proceed as follows:
- Move the decimal to the end of the divisor.
- Move the decimal in the dividend an equal number of places.
We can then complete the division using the rules for dividing a decimal by a whole number.
Divide: \(\overline{ )4.392}\)
Solution
Move the decimal in the divisor to the end of the divisor. Move the decimal in the dividend an equal number of places (two places) to the right.
Now we can follow the algorithm for dividing a decimal number by a whole number.
Thus, 4.392 divided by 0.36 is 12.2.
Divide: \(0.45 \overline{)36.99}\)

Dividing Signed Decimal Numbers
The rules governing division of signed decimal numbers are identical to the rules governing division of integers.
Like Signs. The quotient of two decimal numbers with like signs is positive. That is:
\[\frac{(+)}{(+)} = + \text{ and } \frac{(−)}{(−)} = +\nonumber \]
Unlike Signs. The quotient of two decimal numbers with unlike signs is negative. That is:
\[\frac{(+)}{(−)} = − \text{ and } \frac{(−)}{(+)} = −\nonumber \]
Divide: −0.03 ÷ 0.024.
Solution
First, divide the magnitudes. Move the decimal in the divisor to the end of the divisor. Move the decimal in the dividend an equal number of places (three places) to the right. Note that this requires an extra trailing zero in the dividend.
Our problem then becomes:
\[ 24 \overline{24 )30}\)
We can now follow the algorithm for dividing a decimal number by a whole number. Note that we have to add two trailing zeros in the dividend to complete the division with a zero remainder.
Finally, because the quotient of unlike signs is negative, −0.03 divided by 0.024 is −1.25. That is,
\[ \frac{-0.03}{0.024} = -1.25.\nonumber \]
Divide: −0.0113 ÷ 0.05

Rounding
Sometimes an exact decimal representation of a fraction is not needed and is an approximation is more than adequate.
Convert 4/7 to a decimal. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.
Solution
We need to carry the division one place beyond the hundredths place.
To round to the nearest hundredth, first identify the rounding and test digits.
Because the “test digit” is less 5, leave the rounding digit alone and truncate. Therefore, correct to the nearest hundredth, 4/7 ≈ 0.57.
Convert 5/7 to a decimal. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Dividing by Powers of Ten
Recall:
\[\begin{aligned} 10^1 = 10 \\ 10^2 = 10 \cdot 10 = 100 \\ 10^3 = 10 \cdot 10 \cdot 10 = 1000 \end{aligned}\nonumber \]
In the expression 10n, the exponent matches the number of zeros in the answer. Hence, 10n will be a 1 followed by n zeros.
Thus, 104 = 10, 000, 105 = 100, 000, etc. The exponent tells us how many zeros will follow the 1.
Let’s divide 123456.7 by 1000.
Note the result: 123456.7 divided by 1000 is 123.4567. Dividing by 1000 moves the decimal point 3 places to the left!
This discussion leads to the following result.
Dividing a decimal number by 10n will move the decimal point n places to the left.
Simplify: 123456.7 ÷ 104
Solution
Dividing by 104 (or equivalently, 10,000) moves the decimal point four places to the left. Thus, 123456.7 ÷ 104 = 12.34567.
Simplify: 123456.7 ÷ 102

Order of Operations
We remind readers of the Rules Guiding Order of Operations.
When evaluating expressions, proceed in the following order.
- Evaluate expressions contained in grouping symbols first. If grouping symbols are nested, evaluate the expression in the innermost pair of grouping symbols first.
- Evaluate all exponents that appear in the expression.
- Perform all multiplications and divisions in the order that they appear in the expression, moving left to right.
- Perform all additions and subtractions in the order that they appear in the expression, moving left to right.
In addition, when fractions are present:
If a fractional expression is present, simplify the numerator and denominator separately, then divide.
Evaluate ab/(c + d), given that a = 2.1, b = −3.4, c = −1.3, and d = 1.1.
Solution
Recall that it is good practice to prepare an expression for substitution by using parentheses.
\[ab/(c + d) = (~)(~)/((~) +(~)) \nonumber \]
Substitute the given values for a, b, c, and d, then use the Rules Guiding Order of Operations to simplify the resulting expression.
\[ \begin{aligned} ab/(c+d) = (2.1)(-3.4)/((-1.3)+(1.1)) ~ & \textcolor{red}{2.1, -3.4,-1.3, 1.1 \text{ for } a, b, c, d.} \\ = (2.1)(-3.4)/(-0.2) ~ & \textcolor{red}{ \text{ Parens: } (-1.3) + (1.1) = -0.2.} \\ =-7.14/(-0.2) ~ & \textcolor{red}{ \text{ Multiply: } (2.1)(-3.4) = -7.14.} \\ =35.7 ~ & \textcolor{red}{ \text{ Divide: } -7.14/(-0.2) = 35.7} \end{aligned}\nonumber \]
If a = −2.1, b = 1.7, c = 4, and d = 0.05, evaluate:
\[\frac{a+b}{cd}\nonumber \]

Given a = 0.1 and b = −0.3, evaluate the expression
\[\frac{a+2b}{2a+b}.\nonumber \]
Solution
Substitute the given values, then use the Rules Guiding Order of Operations to simplify the resulting expression.
\[ \begin{aligned} \frac{a+2b}{2a+b} = \frac{(0.1)+2(-0.3)}{2(0.1)+(-0.3)} ~ & \textcolor{red}{ \text{ 0.1 for } a,~ -0.3 \text{ for } b.} \end{aligned}\nonumber \]
Simplify the numerator, simplify the denominator, then divide.
\[ \begin{aligned} = \frac{0.1+(-0.6)}{0.2+(-0.3)} ~ & \textcolor{red}{ \begin{aligned} \text{ Numerator: } 2(-0.3) = -0.6. \\ \text{ Denominator: } 2(0.1)=0.2. \end{aligned}} \\ = \frac{-0.5}{-0.1} ~ & \textcolor{red}{ \begin{aligned} \text{ Numerator: } 0.1 + (-0.6)=-0.5 \\ \text{ Denominator: } 0.2 + (-0.3) = -0.1. \end{aligned}} \\ =5 ~ & \textcolor{red}{ \text{ Divide: } -0.5/(-0.1)=5.} \end{aligned}\nonumber \]
If a = 0.5 and b = −0.125, evaluate:
\[ \frac{2a-b}{a+2b}\nonumber \]
