If 26.97 ÷ 6.3 is written in long division form as long division set up where 63 is on the outside of the division symbol and 26970 is on the inside so that the divisor is written as a whole number, where should the decimal point be placed in the dividend? Between the 2 and the 6
Between the 6 and the 9
Between the 9 and the 7
Between the 7 and the 0

The decimal point should be placed between digits 9 and 7 in the dividend. i.e the dividend becomes 269.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Dividend = 26.97       [numerator]

Divisor = 6.3               [denominator]

If 26.97 ÷ 6.3 is written in long division form so that the divisor is written as a whole number, we have the following;

(i)First convert the divisor to a whole number by multiplying by 10 i.e

6.3 x 10 = 63

(ii) Since the divisor (denominator) has been multiplied by 10, to make sure the division expression stays the same, we need to multiply the dividend(numerator) too by 10. i.e

26.97 x 10 = 269.7

(iii) The division expression then becomes;

269.7 ÷ 63

Therefore, the decimal point should be placed between digits 9 and 7 in the dividend.
