Understanding Division by Fractions

The video tutorial explains how to divide whole numbers by tenths and hundredths. It demonstrates that dividing by a tenth is equivalent to multiplying by ten, and dividing by a hundredth is equivalent to multiplying by a hundred. The tutorial uses examples to illustrate these concepts, showing the conversion of whole numbers into tenths and hundredths, and then performing the division. The video emphasizes the pattern that emerges when dividing by fractions, reinforcing the understanding of division and multiplication relationships.
