250 moves one place to the? when you divi

Explanation:

Step1: Recall division by 10 rule

When dividing a number by 10, the decimal point (or the digits) move one place to the right or left? Let's think about place values. For example, \(250\) is \(250.0\) in decimal form. Dividing by 10: \(250\div10 = 25.0\).

Step2: Analyze digit movement

Looking at the digits: 2 (hundreds place in 250) moves to tens place, 5 (tens place) moves to ones place, 0 (ones place) moves to tenths place? Wait, no. Wait, \(250\) divided by 10: \(250\div10=\frac{250}{10}=25\). So the digits shift one place to the left. Because dividing by 10 is equivalent to multiplying by \( \frac{1}{10} \), which shifts the decimal point (or the digit places) one place to the left. For example, 250 (which is 2 hundreds, 5 tens, 0 ones) becomes 25 (2 tens, 5 ones) when divided by 10. So the digits move one place to the left.
