Question

Divide 0.08 ÷4.96 it will

Answer 1

We have to divide 0.08 by 4.96.

As both are decimals, we will multiply the numerator, 0.08, by tens until it becomes a whole number.

In this case, we have to multiply it 2 times:

`0.08\cdot10\cdot10=0.8\cdot10=8`

Now we have to multiply the denominator the same amount of times (2):

`4.96\cdot10\cdot10=49.60\cdot10=496`

Then, we have:

`(0.08)/(4.96)=(8)/(496)`

Now we can write the division as:

Answer: Calculated to 3 decimal places, 0.08/4.96 = 0.016.
