Dividing a Fraction by a Fraction

Question 6 • AIA - 12 Career Math (1st Sem)

Which of these division problems have the same quotient as 12.3 divided by 0.4? Check all that apply.

Answer
A
123 ÷ 4
B
1.23 ÷ 0.4
C
1,230 ÷ 40
D
123 ÷ 0.04

Explanation

To find an equivalent division problem, multiply both the dividend and divisor by the same number. Multiplying 12.3 ÷ 0.4 by 10 gives 123 ÷ 4, and multiplying both numbers by 100 gives 1,230 ÷ 40. The other choices change the dividend and divisor by different factors, so their quotients are different.
