Dividing Decimals and Repeating Patterns

The video tutorial explains how to perform division by decimals using long division. It covers two examples: dividing 1.1 by 0.6 and 5 by 0.11. The process involves converting the divisor into a whole number by moving the decimal point and doing the same for the dividend. The tutorial demonstrates how to handle repeating decimals by adding zeros and identifying repeating patterns in the quotient.

What is the first step in dividing by a decimal?

• Multiply the dividend by 10

• Subtract the divisor from the dividend

• Add zeros to the dividend

• Convert the divisor to a whole number

Why do we move the decimal point in both the divisor and the dividend?

• To change the value of the quotient

• To make the division easier

• To make the divisor a whole number

• To make the dividend larger

What should you do if the decimal in the quotient starts repeating?

• Round the quotient to the nearest whole number

• Stop the division

• Add more zeros to the dividend

• Write the repeating digit with a bar over it
