Answer:

754.2

Explanation:

First of all, we cannot solve the question the way it is. We need to make 0.1 into a whole number. If we move the decimal to the right, once, then it will become the number one.

Of course, what we do to one, we have to do to the other. We move the decimal to 75.42 to the right one. Now it is 754.2

That looks like the answer. The reason is because we are now dividing by one. Something divided by one, will always be itself.

Now we have the answer of 754.2.
