Answer:

3.12

Explanation:

To divide 1.404 by 0.45, first we will convert the decimal numbers to fraction to have;

1.404 = 1404/1000

0.45 = 45/100

Dividing this two fractions will give;

1404/1000÷45/100

= 1404/1000×100/45

= 1404/10× 1/45

= 1404/450

= 3.12

So I am going to show you how to divide 1.404 by 0.45.
The first thing we need to do in dividing these numbers with decimal points is to move the decimal points first. So it would look like this:
140.4/45. Now, just proceed with the normal division process, and you get the quotient of 3.12. Hope this answers your question.
