Maths problem 5.2 ÷1.25

Move the decimal place of both values two places to the right (520/125) and divide.

125 goes into 520 4 times, leaving a remainder of 20. The decimal place follows it. Bring down another zero, to make the 20 into 200. 200/125 = 1 with 75 remainder. Bring down another 0 to make the 75 into 750. 750/125 = 6

5.2/1.25 = 4.16

This answer 4.16 is not coming according to the formula of decimal places.

Deci place in dividend= 1
Deci place in divisor= 2
Difference=1

Hence one zero is to be added to the quotient..

4.16

To perform the division 5.2 ÷ 1.25, you can follow these steps:

Step 1: Divide the numerator (dividend) by the denominator (divisor). Denominator denotes the number you are dividing by, and the numerator represents the number being divided.

5.2 ÷ 1.25 -- Divide 5.2 by 1.25.

Step 2: Divide the whole number part first. In this case, there are no whole numbers involved in the division, so we move on to the next step.

Step 3: Convert both the numerator and denominator to decimals by adding zeroes after the decimal point.

5.2 ÷ 1.25 = 5.20 ÷ 1.25

Step 4: Now, align the decimal points of both numbers.

5.20 ÷ 1.25

Step 5: Divide as you normally would, starting from the left. Bring the decimal point up into the answer directly above the decimal point in the dividend.

Step 6: Divide 5 by 1 (the whole number part) and place the result above the division line.

1.25

Step 7: Subtract the result obtained in Step 6 multiplied by the divisor from the dividend.

1.25 * 1 = 1.25

5.20 - 1.25 = 3.95

Step 8: Bring down the next digit (zero) from the dividend to the right of the difference obtained in Step 7.

3.95

Step 9: Divide the obtained difference, 3.95, by the divisor, 1.25, then bring up the decimal point in the quotient.

3.95 ÷ 1.25

Step 10: Divide 39 by 12 (the whole number part) and place the result above the division line.

1.25
1.2

Step 11: Multiply the divisor, 1.25, by the result obtained in Step 10.

1.25 * 1.2 = 1.50

Step 12: Subtract the result obtained in Step 11 from the difference obtained in Step 9.

3.95 - 1.50 = 2.45

Step 13: Bring down the next digit (zero) from the dividend to the right of the difference obtained in Step 12.

2.45

Step 14: Divide the obtained difference, 2.45, by the divisor, 1.25, then bring up the decimal point in the quotient.

2.45 ÷ 1.25

Step 15: Divide 24 by 12 (the whole number part) and place the result above the division line.

1.04

1.2

Step 16: Multiply the divisor, 1.25, by the result obtained in Step 15.

1.25 * 1.2 = 1.50

Step 17: Subtract the result obtained in Step 16 from the difference obtained in Step 14.

2.45 - 1.50 = 0.95

Step 18: Since the dividend is smaller than the divisor, we cannot divide further. The division process is complete.

Therefore, 5.2 ÷ 1.25 = 4.16
