Of course! To divide decimal numbers, follow these steps:
1. Set up the division problem as you would with whole numbers, with the dividend (the number being divided) on top and the divisor (the number doing the dividing) on the bottom.
For example, if you want to divide 71.24 by 0.4, it would be set up like this:
71.24
_______________
0.4
2. Now, move the decimal point in the divisor (0.4) all the way to the right until it becomes a whole number.
In this case, moving the decimal point in 0.4 to the right results in 4.
71.24
_______________
4
3. Then move the decimal point in the dividend (71.24) the same number of places to the right as in step 2.
Since the decimal point was moved one place in step 2, move the decimal point in 71.24 one place to the right, resulting in 712.4.
712.4
_______________
4
4. Now, perform the division as you would with whole numbers. Divide the new dividend (712.4) by the divisor (4).
The quotient is 178.
712.4
_______________

- 4
__________

- 0
__________

- 8
__________

- 20

So, the quotient of −71.24 ÷ 0.4 is -178.

What is the quotient of−71.24 ÷ 0.4?
The quotient of −71.24 ÷ 0.4 is -178.1.
can you please show me how you got the answer
To find the quotient of −71.24 ÷ 0.4, you can divide -71.24 by 0.4.
-71.24 ÷ 0.4 = -178.1
Here's the step-by-step calculation:
1. Divide the absolute values: 71.24 ÷ 0.4 = 178.1
2. Assign the negative sign to the result because both numbers being divided are negative: -178.1
Thus, the quotient is -178.1.
can you please show me how to divide decimals
Certainly! To divide two numbers, follow these steps:
1. Set up the division problem with the dividend (the number being divided) on top and the divisor (the number doing the dividing) on the bottom.
2. Begin dividing the leftmost digit of the dividend by the divisor. If the divisor is not a whole number, you may need to add zeroes after the decimal point to align the digits.
3. Continue dividing and bringing down the next digit of the dividend. Repeat the process until you have divided all the digits of the dividend.
4. If the division is not exact, you may end up with a remainder. You can choose to express the remainder as a decimal or as a fraction, depending on the problem.
For example, let's divide 34 by 5:
```
6
───────
5 │ 34
Step 1: Divide 3 by 5
- The quotient is 0, and we bring down the next digit which is 4.
```
6
───────
5 │ 34
- 0
Step 2: Divide 4 by 5
- The quotient is 0, but we bring down another 0 to get 40.
```
6
───────
5 │ 34
- 0
40
Step 3: Divide 40 by 5
- The quotient is 8.
```
68
───────
5 │ 34
- 0
40
40
Step 4: We have divided all the digits of the dividend, and there is no remainder.
Therefore, the quotient of 34 divided by 5 is 6.
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any further questions.
What is the quotient when you divide −10/11 by −2/5
To divide fractions, we follow these steps:
1. Flip the divisor (the fraction you're dividing by) to its reciprocal. To flip a fraction, swap the numerator and denominator.
In this case, the reciprocal of -2/5 is -5/2.
2. Multiply the dividend (the fraction being divided) by the reciprocal of the divisor.
-10/11 * -5/2
3. Multiply the numerators together to get the new numerator, and multiply the denominators together to get the new denominator.
(-10) * (-5) = 50
(11) * (2) = 22
4. Simplify the resulting fraction, if possible.
The fraction 50/22 can be simplified by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 2.
50/2 = 25
22/2 = 11
Therefore, the simplified quotient is 25/11.
So, when you divide -10/11 by -2/5, the quotient is 25/11.

To divide −10/11 by −2/5, you need to multiply the dividend by the reciprocal of the divisor.
The reciprocal of −2/5 is −5/2.
−10/11 * −5/2 = 50/22.
Now, you can simplify the fraction. Both the numerator and denominator can be divided by 2.
50/2 = 25
22/2 = 11
Therefore, the simplified quotient is 25/11.
So, the correct response is 25/11.
wrong answer
Apologies for the incorrect previous response. Let's correct it.
To divide −10/11 by −2/5, we multiply the dividend by the reciprocal of the divisor.
The reciprocal of −2/5 is −5/2.
Now, let's perform the multiplication:
(−10/11) * (−5/2) = (−10 * −5) / (11 * 2) = 50/22.
To simplify the fraction 50/22, we can divide both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 2:
50/2 = 25
22/2 = 11
Thus, the simplified quotient is 25/11.
So, the correct response is 25/11.
write is as a mixed please
Apologies for the confusion. Let's express 25/11 as a mixed number.
To convert 25/11 to a mixed number, we divide the numerator (25) by the denominator (11).
Dividing 25 by 11 gives us a quotient of 2 and a remainder of 3.
So, 25/11 as a mixed number is 2 3/11.
Therefore, the correct response is 2 3/11.
