Good Afternoon! Today we will be learning about Dividing with decimal remainders Let’s warm up : Divide: 1) 42 ÷ 4 1) 10.5 2) 3.24 2) 25.93 ÷ 8 3) 23 ÷ 40 3) 0.575 4) 77.76 ÷ 15 4) 5.184 5) 84.21 ÷ 13 5) 6.48 CONFIDENTIAL 1 Let’s first review what we learnt about division in the previous session before proceeding further. There are four terms which describe the four numbers in a division problem. Dividend. Divisor. Quotient. Remainder. . 8 5)43 40 divisor 3 quotient dividend remainder Dividend = Divisor X Quotient + Remainder CONFIDENTIAL 2 Find 4.5 ÷ 3 . Multiplication is repeated subtraction. So, 4.5 ÷ 3 = 1.5 This can be represented on the number line as follows: You can count backward in groups of 1.5. 4.5 0 1 1.5 2 3 1.5 4 5 1.5 There are 3 jumps of value 1.5 from 4.5 to 0. CONFIDENTIAL 3 Review Expressing the quotient as a decimal 3 5 17 -15 2 3.4 5 17.0 -15 20 -20 00 Divide 17 by 5. There are no more digits in the dividend. Place a decimal point and bring it up to the quotient. Add a 0 onto the remainder. Continue dividing. Add a 0 onto each remainder until the division is exact. If the division is not exact, round off the quotient to the required number of decimal places. CONFIDENTIAL 4 Review The dividend less than the divisor Divide 7 by 8. The dividend 7 is less than the divisor 8. 0.875 8 7.0 -64 60 - 56 40 - 40 00 Place a decimal point and bring it up to the quotient. Add a 0 onto the dividend. Start dividing. Add a 0 onto each remainder until the division is exact. If the division is not exact, round off the quotient to the required number of decimal places. CONFIDENTIAL 5 Review When the dividend is a decimal, and the divisor a whole number Divide: 7.64 ÷ 2 Division with decimals is easier to understand if the divisor (the dividend is divided by the divisor) is a whole number. STEP 1: 2 7.64 Place the divisor (2) before the division bracket and place the dividend (7.64) under it. CONFIDENTIAL 6 Review To divide a decimal by a whole number, divide as you would for whole numbers. STEP 2: 3.82 2 7.64 -6 16 -16 004 -4 0 Place a decimal point in the answer so that it lines up with the decimal point in the Dividend. If after dividing you have a remainder, add a zero to the dividend and continue to divide until there is no remainder or the decimals recur. CONFIDENTIAL 7 Review Divide: 8.66 ÷ 4 We can find the solution as follows: Note: 2.165 4 8.66 -8 06 -4 26 -24 20 -20 00 We added a trailing zero to 8.66 when 4 would not divide into 2. Adding a trailing zero (or zeros) to a decimal number does not alter its value. CONFIDENTIAL 8 Let’s start When we are given a long division to do, sometimes there will be numbers left over. These are known as Remainders. We can use the long division process to work out the answer to a number of decimal places. Division with decimals is easier to understand if the divisor (the dividend is divided by the divisor) is a whole number. If the divisor has a decimal in it, we can make it a whole number by moving the decimal point the appropriate number of places to the right. CONFIDENTIAL 9 Divide: 5 ÷ 12. Round to the nearest hundredths place. Note: Since we must round to the hundredths place, we will carry the answer out 1 place beyond the hundredths place.) Place the numbers in the division equation format. 12 5 0.4 The dividend 5 is less than the divisor 12. Place a decimal point and bring it up to the quotient. CONFIDENTIAL 12 5.00 - 48 20 10 0.416 Add a 0 onto the dividend. Start dividing. The remainder is not zero, so add another zero to the dividend. 12 5.000 - 48 20 - 12 80 - 72 8 The remainder is still not zero. The remainder continues to be 8. This is a repeating decimal. We need our answer rounded to the nearest hundredths place, so we are ready to round. 0.416 rounded to the nearest hundredths place is 0.42 CONFIDENTIAL 11 We will see another problem: Divide: 233.4 ÷ 4 Place the numbers in the division equation format. 4 233.4 5 Begin the division with 4 into 23 (since 4 cannot go into 2). This gives us 5 with a remainder of 3. CONFIDENTIAL 4 233.4 - 20 3 12 Now bring down the next 3, so we must divide 33 by 4. This gives us 8 with a remainder of 1. 58 4 233.4 - 20 33 - 32 14 58.3 Now bring down 4, so we must divide 14 by 4. Here, 4 occurs in the dividend after the decimal , so we put a decimal in the quotient after 8. This gives us 3 with a remainder of 2. CONFIDENTIAL 4 233.4 - 20 33 - 32 14 - 12 2 13 58.35 If after dividing you have a remainder, add a zero to the dividend and continue to divide until there is no remainder or the decimals recur. Now bring down the next 0, so we must divide 20 by 4. This gives us 5 with a remainder of 0. CONFIDENTIAL 4 233.40 - 20 33 - 33 14 - 12 20 - 20 00 14 BREAK CONFIDENTIAL 15 GAME Click on the link below for some exciting puzzle http://www.thekidzpage.com/onlinejigsawpuzzles/kids-jigsawpuzzles/12-piece-jigsaw/03-27-07-bunnybee.html CONFIDENTIAL 16 Assignments Divide. Round to the nearest hundredths place: 1) 23 ÷ 16 1) 1.44 2) 13 ÷ 15 2) 0.87 3) 67 ÷ 9 3) 7.44 4) 7 ÷ 8 4) 0.88 CONFIDENTIAL 17 Divide. Round to the nearest thousandths place: 5) 355.67 ÷ 13 5) 27.359 6) 246.8 ÷ 9 6) 27.422 7) 685.53 ÷ 11 7) 62.321 8) 513.56 ÷ 45 8) 11.412 CONFIDENTIAL 18 9) Tina bought 6 ice creams for $15.9. Find the cost of one ice-cream. 9) $2.65 CONFIDENTIAL 19 10) Four tanks can store 550 liters of water. If the capacity of the tanks is equal, then what is the capacity of one tank? 10) 137.5 liters CONFIDENTIAL 20 Very Good! Let's Review When we are given a long division to do, sometimes there will be numbers left over. These are known as Remainders. We can use the long division process to work out the answer to a number of decimal places. Division with decimals is easier to understand if the divisor (the dividend is divided by the divisor) is a whole number. If the divisor has a decimal in it, we can make it a whole number by moving the decimal point the appropriate number of places to the right. CONFIDENTIAL 21 Review We saw the following problem: Divide: 233.4 ÷ 4 Place the numbers in the division equation format. Begin the division with 4 into 23 (since 4 cannot go into 2). This gives us 5 with a remainder of 3. CONFIDENTIAL 4 233.4 5 4 233.4 - 20 3 22 Review Now bring down the next 3, so we must divide 33 by 4. This gives us 8 with a remainder of 1. 58 4 233.4 - 20 33 - 32 14 58.3 Now bring down 4, so we must divide 14 by 4. Here, 4 occurs in the dividend after the decimal , so we put a decimal in the quotient after 8. This gives us 3 with a remainder of 2. CONFIDENTIAL 4 233.4 - 20 33 - 32 14 - 12 2 23 Review 58.35 If after dividing you have a remainder, add a zero to the dividend and continue to divide until there is no remainder or the decimals recur. Now bring down the next 0, so we must divide 20 by 4. This gives us 5 with a remainder of 0. CONFIDENTIAL 4 233.40 - 20 33 - 33 14 - 12 20 - 20 00 24 You have done a nice job.
