1Decimal Division Algorithm
2The Structural Procedure
  1. Make the divisor a whole number: slide its decimal point to the right
  2. Slide the dividend's decimal point to the right the same number of places
  3. Write the answer's decimal point in the column directly above the dividend's point, then divide as whole numbers using Divide → Multiply → Subtract → Bring Down
3Mathematical Word Bank
  • Divide Decimals (Dividir decimales) — Find a quotient with decimals by sliding both decimal points right until the divisor is a whole number.
  • Dividend (Dividendo) — The total number being divided into equal groups (the number inside the division bracket).
  • Divisor (Divisor) — The number of equal groups you are dividing into (the number outside the division bracket).
  • Quotient (Cociente) — The answer when you divide.
  • Decimal Division Algorithm (Algoritmo de división decimal) — The steps for dividing decimals: slide the divisor's decimal point right until the divisor is a whole number, slide the dividend's point right the same number of places, then divide.
  • Equivalent division (División equivalente) — Multiplying both numbers by 10 or 100 gives the same answer.
4Watch out
  • A common mistake in Divide Decimals is moving the decimal point in the divisor but forgetting to move it the same number of places in the dividend. For example, in 6.4 ÷ 0.8 a student changes 0.8 to 8 but leaves the dividend as 6.4, then divides 6.4 ÷ 8 = 0.8 instead of moving both points to get 64 ÷ 8 = 8. A second version of this mistake happens when the divisor has two decimal places, like 0.12: students move both points only 1 place instead of 2, turning 9.6 ÷ 0.12 into 96 ÷ 1.2 instead of the correct 960 ÷ 12. Count the divisor's decimal places first, then move BOTH points that same number of places.
