Worksheet Overview

This activity is about dividing numbers and turning the remainder into a decimal.

Example

Work out 774 ÷ 8

Answer

Set out the division calculation, using short division.

Insert a decimal point and extra zeros at the end of 774 to turn the remainder into a decimal.

This is to show that there are no tenths, hundredths etc. so that we can continue carrying the remainder across.

So 774 ÷ 8 = 96.75
