Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 5.11 Divide Decimals and Interpret the Quotient skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery

A recipe uses 0.28 liters of oil per batch. If you have 5.04 liters, how many batches can you make? Choose the statement that best justifies the quotient.

AThe quotient is 18.00. Move the decimal 2 places to the right in both numbers: 5.04 ÷ 0.28 = 504 ÷ 28. Then divide to get 18.00.

B180.00 places the decimal too far to the right.

C1.80 places the decimal too far to the left.

D1.41 uses the wrong operation or moves only one decimal.

Solution & Explanation:Make the divisor a whole number by multiplying both numbers by 100. This moves each decimal 2 places to the right and keeps the quotient the same: 5.04 ÷ 0.28 = 504 ÷ 28. Then 504 ÷ 28 = 18, which rounds to 18.00.

Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery

Solve 2.2 ÷ 0.11. Which statement correctly makes the divisor a whole number and then checks the result with an estimate?

A200.00 places the decimal too far to the right.

B2.00 places the decimal too far to the left.

C0.24 uses the wrong operation or moves only one decimal.

DThe quotient is 20.00. Move the decimal 2 places to the right in both numbers: 2.2 ÷ 0.11 = 220 ÷ 11. Then divide to get 20.00.

Solution & Explanation:Make the divisor a whole number by multiplying both numbers by 100. This moves each decimal 2 places to the right and keeps the quotient the same: 2.2 ÷ 0.11 = 220 ÷ 11. Then 220 ÷ 11 = 20, which rounds to 20.00.

Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery

Wes moved the decimals and got 0.08. For 0.6 ÷ 0.08, which statement gives the correct quotient to hundredths and explains the decimal placement?

A75.00 places the decimal too far to the right.

B0.75 places the decimal too far to the left.

CThe quotient is 7.50. Move the decimal 2 places to the right in both numbers: 0.6 ÷ 0.08 = 60 ÷ 8. Then divide to get 7.50.

D0.05 uses the wrong operation or moves only one decimal.

Solution & Explanation:Make the divisor a whole number by multiplying both numbers by 100. This moves each decimal 2 places to the right and keeps the quotient the same: 0.6 ÷ 0.08 = 60 ÷ 8. Then 60 ÷ 8 = 7.5, which rounds to 7.50.
