This math topic focuses on introducing the concept of dividing decimals by whole numbers in tenths, as a fraction. It is designed to help students understand how decimal points affect the result of division when transitioning from whole numbers to decimals. Each problem involves dividing a decimal by a whole number and selecting the correct answer from multiple choices. Examples extend from simple divisions such as "24 divided by 4" to more decimal-focused queries like "1.8 divided by 3". This exercise is part of a broader unit on introductory decimal division.
