## Activity: division by multiples of 10 [lo 1.5.1, lo 1.7.5]

23.4 DIVISION BY MULTIPLES OF 10

23.4.1 Do you still remember?

a) This is how I divide 0,8 by 40:

0,8 ÷ 40 = (0,8 ÷ 10) ÷ 4

= 0,08 ÷ 4

= 0,02

b) When I divide 4,2 by 600, I say:

4,2 ÷ 600 = (4,2 ÷ 100) ÷ 6

= 0,042 ÷ 6

= 0,007

23.4.2 Calculate the following without a calculator:

a) j = 3,28 ÷ 80

…………………………………………………………………………………………..

…………………………………………………………………………………………..

b) d = 567 ÷ 700

…………………………………………………………………………………………..

…………………………………………………………………………………………..

c) g = 18,6 ÷ 2 000

…………………………………………………………………………………………..

23.5 DIVISION WITH DECIMAL FRACTIONS

23.5.1 Work through the following examples with a friend:

A roll of material is 11,25 m long. 1,5 m of material is needed to make one dress.

How many dresses can be cut from this roll of material?

a) I must calculate 11,25 ÷ 1,5

I change the decimal fractions to fractions:

$\text{11},\text{25}=\text{11}\frac{\text{25}}{\text{100}}=\text{11}\frac{1}{4}$ en $1,5=1\frac{5}{\text{10}}=1\frac{1}{2}$

$\begin{array}{}\text{11}\frac{1}{4}÷1\frac{1}{2}=\frac{\text{45}}{4}÷\frac{3}{2}\\ \frac{\text{45}}{4}×\frac{2}{3}\\ 7\frac{1}{2}\end{array}$

I make use of equivalent fractions :

$\begin{array}{}\text{11},\text{25}÷1,5=\frac{\text{11},\text{25}}{1,5}×\frac{\text{10}}{\text{10}}=\frac{\text{112},5}{\text{15}}\\ 7,5\\ 7\frac{1}{2}\end{array}$

c) I must calculate 11,25 ÷ 1,5I change the divisor to a whole number so that I can divide easier.

1,5 × 10 = 15

To keep the balance in the sum, I must also multiply the dividend by 10!

11,25 × 10 = 112,5

 7 ,5 15 112 ,5 –105 7 5 –7 5 · ·

The answer is thus 7,5 dresses..

f) Round off the cost of the national calls (0 – 50 km) to 1 digit after the comma.

…………………………………………………………………………………………..

g) What is the total cost of the national calls? ……………………………………

h) If two “ShareCall” calls cost R1,28, what would 48 such calls cost?

…………………………………………………………………………………………..

## Assessment

Learning Outcome 1: The learner will be able to recognise, describe and represent numbers and their relationships, and to count, estimate, calculate and check with competence and confidence in solving problems.

Assessment Standard 1.5: We know this when the learner solves problems in context including contexts that may be used to build awareness of other Learning Areas, as well as human rights, social, economic and environmental issues such as:

1.5.1 financial (including profit and loss, budgets, accounts, loans, simple interest, hire purchase, exchange rates);

Assessment Standard 1.7: We know this when the learner estimates and calculates by selecting and using operations appropriate to solving problems that involve:

1.7.5 division of positive decimals with at least 3 decimal places by whole numbers.

Is there any normative that regulates the use of silver nanoparticles?
what king of growth are you checking .?
Renato
What fields keep nano created devices from performing or assimulating ? Magnetic fields ? Are do they assimilate ?
why we need to study biomolecules, molecular biology in nanotechnology?
?
Kyle
yes I'm doing my masters in nanotechnology, we are being studying all these domains as well..
why?
what school?
Kyle
biomolecules are e building blocks of every organics and inorganic materials.
Joe
anyone know any internet site where one can find nanotechnology papers?
research.net
kanaga
sciencedirect big data base
Ernesto
Introduction about quantum dots in nanotechnology
what does nano mean?
nano basically means 10^(-9). nanometer is a unit to measure length.
Bharti
do you think it's worthwhile in the long term to study the effects and possibilities of nanotechnology on viral treatment?
absolutely yes
Daniel
how to know photocatalytic properties of tio2 nanoparticles...what to do now
it is a goid question and i want to know the answer as well
Maciej
Abigail
for teaching engĺish at school how nano technology help us
Anassong
Do somebody tell me a best nano engineering book for beginners?
there is no specific books for beginners but there is book called principle of nanotechnology
NANO
what is fullerene does it is used to make bukky balls
are you nano engineer ?
s.
fullerene is a bucky ball aka Carbon 60 molecule. It was name by the architect Fuller. He design the geodesic dome. it resembles a soccer ball.
Tarell
what is the actual application of fullerenes nowadays?
Damian
That is a great question Damian. best way to answer that question is to Google it. there are hundreds of applications for buck minister fullerenes, from medical to aerospace. you can also find plenty of research papers that will give you great detail on the potential applications of fullerenes.
Tarell
what is the Synthesis, properties,and applications of carbon nano chemistry
Mostly, they use nano carbon for electronics and for materials to be strengthened.
Virgil
is Bucky paper clear?
CYNTHIA
carbon nanotubes has various application in fuel cells membrane, current research on cancer drug,and in electronics MEMS and NEMS etc
NANO
so some one know about replacing silicon atom with phosphorous in semiconductors device?
Yeah, it is a pain to say the least. You basically have to heat the substarte up to around 1000 degrees celcius then pass phosphene gas over top of it, which is explosive and toxic by the way, under very low pressure.
Harper
Do you know which machine is used to that process?
s.
how to fabricate graphene ink ?
for screen printed electrodes ?
SUYASH
What is lattice structure?
of graphene you mean?
Ebrahim
or in general
Ebrahim
in general
s.
Graphene has a hexagonal structure
