Question

divide.
75.5 ÷ 1000

Explanation:

Step1: Recall division by powers of 10

Dividing a number by 1000 is equivalent to moving the decimal point three places to the left.
For \(75.5\div1000\), we start with the number \(75.5\).

Step2: Move the decimal point

Moving the decimal point three places to the left in \(75.5\):

• First, we can write \(75.5\) as \(75.500\) (adding trailing zeros doesn't change the value).
• Moving the decimal point three places to the left: \(75.500\) becomes \(0.0755\).

Answer:

\(0.0755\)
