Explain in your own words the steps to dividing decimals by decimals.

1: Estimate the answer by rounding . You'll use this estimate to check your answer later.

2: If the divisor is not a whole number, then move the decimal place
places to the right to make it a whole number. Then move the decimal place in the dividend the same number of places to the right (adding some extra zeros if necessary.)

3: Divide as usual. If the divisor doesn't go in evenly, add zeros to the right of the dividend and keep dividing until you get a 0
0
remainder, or until a repeating pattern shows up.

4: Put the decimal point in the quotient directly above where the decimal point now is in the dividend.

5: Check your answer against your estimate to see if it's reasonable.

40%=2/550=1/230=3/1056=14/25
