Division of Decimal Fractions

STEPS1. Set up the divisor and dividend2. Make the divisor a whole number my moving the decimal

completely to the end of the number and count those spaces3. Move the decimal in the dividend the same number of spaces - you might have to add some zeros4. The decimal in the answer is directly under the decimal in the dividend5. Perform long division just like you do with whole numbers6. Round to two places
