| 00:0-1 | Since we already know how to divide a decimal by | |
| 00:02 | a whole number . To divide two decim such as | |
| 00:05 | 0.138 divided by 0.6 . Let's first change 0.6 to | |
| 00:12 | a whole number by multiplying by 10 . This moves | |
| 00:18 | the decimal .1 place to the right , giving us | |
| 00:21 | six . If we multiply 0.6 by 10 , however | |
| 00:26 | , we also must multiply 0.138 x 10 . This | |
| 00:32 | moves the decimal .1 place to the right , giving | |
| 00:35 | us 1.38 . Now we have 1.38 divided by six | |
| 00:43 | , which looks just like the problems in the previous | |
| 00:46 | section . So we divide six into 1.38 six doesn't | |
| 00:54 | divide into one . So we divide six into 13 | |
| 00:58 | , 6 divides into 13 2 times . So we | |
| 01:01 | write the two above the three , two times 6 | |
| 01:05 | is 12 And 13 -12 is one . Now we | |
| 01:10 | bring down the eight to get 18 , six divides | |
| 01:14 | into 18 , 3 times three times 6 is 18 | |
| 01:19 | And 18 -18 is zero . Finally , we bring | |
| 01:24 | up the decimal point of 1.38 to our answer , | |
| 01:29 | And we have .23 or 0.23 , So 0.138 divided | |
| 01:36 | by 0.6 0.23 . |
