Answer:

0.168

Explanation:

0.64 ÷ 3.8

To divide this number first we need to remove the decimal point from the given problem 3.8

In 0.64 ,We have 64 after the decimal point so we multiply by 100

We multiply both numbers by 10

0.64* 100 is 64

3.8 * 100 is 380

Now we do 64 ÷ 38 0

We put 64 inside and 380 outside. We use long division

When we put decimal point at the top then we add 0 with 64

0 . 1 6 8 4

---------------------------------------

380 640

380

------------------------------------------(subtract)

260 0

2280

-------------------------------------------(subtract)

320 0

3040

--------------------------------(subtract)

160 0

1520

----------------------------------(subtract)

80 and it goes on

quotient is 0.1684

When we round to three decimal places it becomes 0.168
