Division Worksheet/multiplication and division (5)
Performing operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication and division has some differences when there are decimals involved. This lesson will explain how to perform these operations all while keeping the decimals straight. Decimal Notation The decimal number system is the most common system of counting in the world. It is a base 10 system, which means that it is based on a 10 number cycle, the numbers 0 - 9. Each number is also divided into 10 sections and so on and so on. These sections are notated by a decimal point, which is a dot placed after the number in the one's place and before the number representing the number of sections of the next number. The number after the decimal point represents a fraction of a number with the base of 10. For example, 2.2 is a number written in decimal notation depicting 2 whole numbers and 2/10's of another whole number. And 37.55 is 37 whole numbers and 55/100's of another whole number.
