Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]Dividend = 714.38[/tex]
[tex]Divisor = 0.6[/tex]
The options are not given. However, a possible solution to the problem is as follows:
[tex]Result = \frac{Dividend}{Divisor}[/tex]
Substitute values for Dividend and Divisor
[tex]Result = \frac{714.38}{0.6}[/tex]
Using understanding of place value, he can multiply the fraction by 10/10
[tex]Result = \frac{714.38 * 10}{0.6 * 10}[/tex]
[tex]Result = \frac{7143.8}{6}[/tex] -- This will give the same result as the original problem.
Another possible solution is by multiplying the original problem by 100/100 to eliminate decimals
[tex]Result = \frac{714.38*100}{0.6*100}[/tex]
[tex]Result = \frac{71438}{60}[/tex] -- This will also give the same result as the original problem.
