multiple-choice question
what do you need to do to the divisor in
order to solve this problem?

delete the decimal in the divisor (circled in
yellow) well get the same answer!

shift the decimal in the divident (under the
division bar) 1 place to the right. -->

shift the decimal in the divisor (circled in
yellow) 1 place to the left. <--

shift the decimal in the divisor (circled in
yellow) 1 place to the right. -->

Explanation:

To solve division with a decimal divisor (1.5), we convert the divisor to a whole number. For 1.5, shifting the decimal 1 place right (multiplying by 10) makes it 15. We must also shift the dividend's decimal the same number of places. The correct option is the one about shifting the divisor's decimal 1 place right.

Answer:

D. Shift the decimal in the divisor (circled in yellow) 1 place to the right. --> (assuming D is the last option; if options are labeled differently, adjust the label but the text is "Shift the decimal in the divisor (circled in yellow) 1 place to the right. -->")
