For this case we have:

0.3 can be rewritten as
\frac {3} {10}

0.06 can be rewritten as
\frac {6} {100}

If we want to divide 0.3 by 0.06, we can do it in the following equivalent way:


\frac {\frac {3} {10}} {\frac {6} {100}}

So:


\frac {\frac {3} {10}} {\frac {6} {100}} =\\\frac {100 * 3} {10 * 6} =\\\frac {300} {60} =\\\frac {30} {6} = 5

Thus, when dividing 0.3 by 0.06, the number 5 is obtained as a result

Answer:

5
