Question

What is 80 divided 218 in decimal form and can i get an explanation for next time?

Answer 1

80 divided by 218 in decimal form is approximately 0.366972477. To calculate this, set up the division with 80 inside and 218 outside the division bar, add a decimal and zero to the dividend, and divide as with whole numbers, bringing down zeros as needed.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find 80 divided by 218 in decimal form, you would set up the division as you normally would. For example:

1. Place 80 (the dividend) inside the division bar (or bracket) and 218 (the divisor) outside.
2. Since 80 is less than 218, you must add a decimal point and zero to 80, making it 80.0.
3. Now divide as you would with whole numbers, keeping in mind to bring down a zero every time you extend the decimal.

Since this division might be complex to perform in my head, using a calculator is a practical approach to find that 80 divided by 218 equals approximately 0.366972477 when rounded to nine decimal places.

If we were doing a unit conversion, we would set it up similarly, by writing the units we have and then multiplying them by a conversion factor to get the desired units.

Note that, just like with unit conversions, where we use conversion factors to simplify units, we use place value and decimals to simplify the division of numbers that don't divide evenly into whole numbers.

Answer 2

The result of dividing 80 by 218 is 0.3669

Using the parameters given for our Calculation;

• Divisor = 218

Now we divide 80 by the divisor ; We have ;

80 / 218

= 0.3669

Hence, the result of dividing 80 by 218 is 0.3669
