Correct answer:

Explanation:

The problem that you are challenged to solve is.

is the dividend, this is what is being broken up into groups.is our divisor which is the number of groups you are making. We need to splitin half to see how many are in each group.

The first step is to place your decimal above your equation in the same place. It will line up with the decimal inside of your "long-division house".

Next, we need to use or multiplication facts to determine whatcan be multiplied by to makeor get close to it without going over.is the fact that works best (is too large). We will place the numeraldirectly above thein the ones place to indicate thatgroups offit into the. We will put the product ofwhich wasunderneath thein the ones place and subtract the difference. The numbers above the "house" are our quotient or answer to the division problem.

Next, we will carry thein the tenths place down and put it next to the. We will work with the numbers as if they werewhen thinking of multiplication facts, but it should be noted this is actuallywhen you consider the decimal placement.so we place theabove the "house" in the tenths place of our quotient and subtract the. We are left withremaining so there is no remainder.

Our final answer is, which means that half ofis
