is the quptient 4.5 ÷0.9 greater or less than 4.5.Why?

Sagot :

i´m going to asume you meant quocient, if it is the answer is greater explanation, if you divide decimal numbers a personal trick i use is turning them into fractions

4.5= 45/10
0.9= 9/10

so in order to divide 2 fractions you have to turn one of the fractions, but only one, i´m going to choose 9/10 (at the end is the same if you choose 45/100) and them you directly multilply the numbers that were left a the top and put them as the top

45 * 10 = 450

and then you do the same with the bottoms
 
9 * 10 = 90

so now you unite them

450/90

a fraction is basicly the same as a division so i´m going to divide them

450 / 90 = 5

so at the end  4.5 divided by 0.9 is greater than 4.5

i hope i helped you
