Question

15 ÷ 3 = 5. Explain why it is true that 1.5 ÷ 0.3 and 0.15 ÷ 0.03 have the same quotient.

Answer 1

Explained

Explanation:

here is a rule if the numerator and the denominator both are divided or multiplied by the same constant there no change in the quotient of the division. 15 divided by 3 will give 5 as quotient so does 1.5÷0.3 and 0.15÷0.03 because in the later both numerator and the denominator are divided by 10 and 100 and the quotient remains unchanged.
