This activity is about dividing numbers and turning the remainder into a decimal.
Example
Work out 774 ÷ 8
Answer
Set out the division calculation, using short division.
Insert a decimal point and extra zeros at the end of 774 to turn the remainder into a decimal.
This is to show that there are no tenths, hundredths etc. so that we can continue carrying the remainder across.
So 774 ÷ 8 = 96.75
