​Remainders

You may remember a remainder

Remainders are used to divide complex dividends by divisors that result in non-whole number groups

This year, we will learn how to convert remainders to decimals

​

​1. Add a decimal place

2. Add a zero after the decimal

3. Bring down the zero and repeat all steps​

​Some text here about the topic of discussion.
