Concept Notes:
To divide decimals by 0.1, 0.01, 0.001, move the decimal point to the right according
the number of decimal places in the divisor.
EXAMPLE:
Place correctly the decimal point in the quotient.
3.765 ÷ 0.1 =
3.765 ÷ 0.01 =
3.765 ÷ 0.001 =
SOLUTION:
3.765 ÷ 0.1 = 37.65 The decimal point is between 7 and 6 because it is moved
one decimal place going to the right.
3.765 ÷ 0.01 = 376.5 The decimal point is between 6 and 5 because it is moved
two decimal places going to the right.
3.765 ÷ 0.001 = 3765 The decimal point is moved three decimal places going to
the right

Concept Notes:
To divide decimals by 0.1, 0.01, 0.001, move the decimal point in the dividend to
the right according the number of decimal places in the divisor.
EXAMPLE:
Solve for N.
a. 24.25 ÷ 0.1 = n
b. 531.4 ÷ 0.01 = n
c. 2.997 ÷ 0.001 = n
d. What is the quotient when 2.7165 is divided by one tenth?
e. What is the quotient when 31.5467 is divided by 0.01?
SOLUTION:
a. 24.25 ÷ 0.1 = 242.5 (Move one decimal place in the dividend because 0.1 has
one decimal place)
b. 531.40 ÷ 0.01 = 53140 (Move 2 decimal places in the dividend and add one zero
because the divisor is 0.01 and has 2 decimal places)
c. 2.997 ÷ 0.001 = 2997 (Move three decimal places in the dividend because 0.001
has three decimal place)
d. 2.7165 ÷ 0.1 = 27.165 (Move one decimal place in the dividend because 0.1 has
one decimal place)
e. 31.5467 ÷ 0.01 = 3154.67 (Move two decimal places in the dividend because 0.01
has two decimal places)

EXAMPLE:
Divide the following.
a. 5497.6 ÷ 10 =
b. 5497.6 ÷ 100=
c. 5497.6 ÷ 1 000 =
SOLUTION:
a. 5497.6 ÷ 10 = 549.76 The decimal point is between 9 and 7 because it is moved
one decimal place going to the left
b. 5497.6 ÷ 100 = 54.976 The decimal point is between 4 and 9 because it is moved
two decimal places going to the left
c. 5497.6 ÷ 1000 = 5.4976 The decimal point is between 5 and 4 because it is moved
three decimal places going to the left.
