To divide decimal numbers:
1)If the divisor is not a whole number, decimal point should be moved to the right to make it a whole number and move decimal point in dividend the same number of places.
2)Keep dividing until the answer terminates or repeats
3) Put decimal point directly above decimal point in the dividend.
4)Multiply quotient by divisor and check if it is equal to dividend.
In free math help, ‘divide’ means making a number into as many equal portions as possible or dividing the number into as many equal portions as possible. It is opposite process of multiplication.
