Question

$$\frac{ 9 }{ 0.125 }$$

Answer

72

Solution


Shift the decimals of both 9 and 0.125 to the right by 3 decimal places. (This is needed to convert 0.125 to 125, since long division must divide by a whole number.)
\[9000\div 125\]
Use the algorithm method.
72
125|9000
875

Therefore, \(9\div 0.125=72\).
\[72\]
