Division Concepts and Techniques

The video tutorial covers division with decimals using a structured approach. It begins with an introduction to the concept, followed by setting up the problem using a place value chart. The instructor demonstrates creating a T-chart to find multiples of the divisor and provides a step-by-step solution to the division problem. A second example is solved with a different divisor, and the video concludes with tips for solving similar problems.

What is the first step in solving a division problem with decimals?

• Create a t-chart for multiples

• Multiply the divisor

• Set up the division house

• Subtract the dividend

Where does the divisor go in the division house setup?

• Below the house

• Above the house

• Inside the house

• Outside the house

Why is a place value chart important in division with decimals?

• To avoid writing digits in the wrong place

• To add the numbers

• To divide the numbers

• To multiply the numbers

What should you do with the decimal when setting up the division problem?

• Erase it

• Ignore it

• Copy it to the quotient

• Move it to the end

What is the purpose of creating a t-chart for multiples?

• To find the sum of numbers

• To identify how many times the divisor fits into the dividend

• To subtract the numbers

• To divide the numbers

What is the first number you should try to fit the divisor into?

• The entire dividend

• The first digit of the dividend

• The middle digit of the dividend

• The last digit of the dividend

What do you do if the divisor cannot fit into the first digit of the dividend?

• Multiply the divisor

• Add the divisor

• Subtract the divisor

• Move to the next digit

What is the result of dividing 12.35 by 5?

• 3.68

• 2.47

• 1.23

• 4.75

In the second problem, what is the new divisor?

• 15

• 13

• 12

• 5

Why is it helpful to create a t-chart for the new divisor?

• To help with division calculations

• To subtract the multiples

• To find the sum of the multiples

• To memorize the multiples
