Answer:

See below.

Explanation:

4.2 is 4 and 2 tenths.

4 is 40 tenths.

That means that 4.2 is 40 tenths plus 2 tenths, or 42 tenths.

First line: 4.2 / 6 = 42 tenths / 6

In the second line, we divide 42 tenths by 6. Since 42 divided by 6 = 7, then 42 tenths divided by 6 equals 7 tenths.

Second line: 4.2 / 6 = 7 tenths

In the third line, we write 7 tenths as a number. 7 tenths is the same as 0.7.

Third line: 4.2 / 6 = 0.7
