4.8/0.6

OpenStudy (cutepuppies):

plz explain

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If you would have typed 4.8/0.6 into Google you would have gotten 8. Maybe you should study more so you know how to do this stuff.

OpenStudy (cutepuppies):

well can you plz explain

OpenStudy (tootzrll):

what it says, is 4.8 divided by 0.6. the / represents the divided by symbol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Why would I explain something that you can Google and find the answer yourself?

OpenStudy (cutepuppies):

i know but how do i solve the problem

OpenStudy (cutepuppies):

but what am i going to do in a test if i dont get it and i cant use google

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That's what studying is for. I had to do it for years. You should too.

OpenStudy (tootzrll):

cutepuppies, u dont need Google (its CHEATING btw), this is you equation: 4.8/0.6 divide the 4.8 by the 0.6 that is all you're asked to do.

OpenStudy (cutepuppies):

look if you do not want to help then get out of this question and go bother someone else

OpenStudy (cutepuppies):

i know but how do i divide decimals

OpenStudy (tootzrll):

well, i would either do it the orginal way on paper, or use a calculator.

OpenStudy (cutepuppies):

ok thank you

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

Multiply the numerator and the denominator of 4.8/0.6 by 10 will clear the decimal point then divide 48 by 6. How many times does 6 go into 48? 6•8 = 48 $$\dfrac{4.8}{0.6}=\dfrac{48}{6}=48 \div 6$$
