Question

Miguel completed the division problem below. What is Miguel's error? 754 divided by 0.52. 52 StartLongDivisionSymbol 7540 EndLongDivisionSymbol minus 52 = 234. 234 minus 208 = 260. 260 minus 260 = a remainder of 0 and a quotient of 145. He included a 5 in the quotient, which does not belong. He multiplied the divisor by 10 and the dividend by 100. He subtracted 208 from 234 incorrectly. He multiplied the divisor by 100 and the dividend by 10.

Explanation:

Hope this helps:)

Answer 2

He multiplied the divisor by 100 and the dividend by 10.

Explanation:

Given that

Divisor = 0.52

And, the dividend is 754

It can be written as

Divisor is 52 i.e. (0.52 × 100)

And, the dividend is 7540 i.e. (754 × 10)

Now if we multiplied by 100 and divide by 10 so it gives the same result

Therefore the last option is correct and the same is to be considered

And all the other options are wrong
