How to convert decimal division expressions to fractional division

To convert decimal division expressions to fractional division expressions with whole number divisors, multiply both the dividend and the divisor by the appropriate power of 10 to eliminate the decimal places.

1. 35.7 ÷ 0.07

Multiply both the dividend and divisor by 100:

(35.7 × 100) ÷ (0.07 × 100)

= 3570 ÷ 7

486.12 ÷ 0.6

Multiply both the dividend and divisor by 100:

(486.12 × 100) ÷ (0.6 × 100)

= 48612 ÷ 60

3.43 ÷ 0.035

Multiply both the dividend and divisor by 1000:

(3.43 × 1000) ÷ (0.035 × 1000)

= 3430 ÷ 35

5,418.54 ÷ 0.009

Multiply both the dividend and divisor by 1000:

(5418.54 × 1000) ÷ (0.009 × 1000)

= 5418540 ÷ 9

812.5 ÷ 1.25

Multiply both the dividend and divisor by 100:

(812.5 × 100) ÷ (1.25 × 100)

= 81250 ÷ 125

17.343 ÷ 36.9

Multiply both the dividend and divisor by 1000:

(17.343 × 10) ÷ (36.9 × 10)

= 17343 ÷ 36900

Convert decimal division expressions to fractional division expressions to create whole number divisors.

1. 35.7 ÷ 0.07

2. 486.12 ÷ 0.6

3. 3.43 ÷ 0.035

4. 5,418.54 ÷ 0.009

5. 812.5 ÷ 1.25

6. 17.343 ÷ 36.9
