Question

How many places does the decimal point move when you divide a number by 10? In which direction?

Answer 1

If we divide an 8 by 10 for example, the answer is 0.8, So, when you divide a number by 10, you should move 1 place the decimal point to the left direction.

For example:

`\begin{gathered} (0.5)/(10)=0.005 \\ (78.0)/(10)=7.8 \\ (34.5)/(10)=3.45 \end{gathered}`
