Answer:
[tex]300 = 60[/tex] [tex]÷[/tex] [tex]0.2[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
→ Place value strategy
We can think in terms of tenths:
[tex]60[/tex] [tex]÷[/tex] [tex]0.2[/tex] [tex]=[/tex] [tex]60.0[/tex]
[tex]= 600[/tex] [tex]tenths[/tex] [tex]÷[/tex] [tex]2[/tex]
[tex]= 300[/tex]
→ Fraction strategy
We can convert the division problem to a fraction, then multiply the top and bottom of the fraction by [tex]10[/tex] so we can work with whole numbers:
[tex]60[/tex] [tex]÷[/tex] [tex]0.2[/tex] [tex]= \frac{60}{0.2}[/tex]
[tex]= \frac{60 × 10}{0.2 × 10}[/tex]
[tex]= \frac{600}{2}[/tex]
[tex]= 300[/tex]
