Answers are A and C.

6.5 ÷1.3 = 5

A. 65 ÷ 13 = 5 so yes

B. 65 ÷ 130 = .5 so no

C. 650 ÷ 130 = 5 so yes

D. 650 ÷ 13 = 50 so no

Answer:

A & C

Explanation:

To find the two expressions that are equivalent to 6.5 ÷ 1.3, you need to solve all of them until you get the two expressions that have a quotient of 5.

Let's begin solving!

65 ÷ 13 = 5

So now we know that A is one of our answers

65 ÷ 130 = 0.5

Not one of our answers because the quotient is not 5

650 ÷ 130 = 5

This is our other answer! We don't need to solve D because we only needed to find two expressions which are A and C.

Hope this helps you :)
