Recipe

1. Set up divisor and Dividend2. Look at the Divisor, move decimal

place over to last non-zero number3. How ever many places you moved the

decimal in step 2, you move the decimal in the dividend

4. Divide as you would with a whole number

Find the quotient.5.2 ÷ 1.3

1.3 5.2 Move decimal place over once for divisor

Move decimal place over once for dividend

Divide.
