Swinging Monkeys!
Follow these steps and you will be great at dividing decimals!
Remember: Whatever the OUTSIDE monkeys do – the
INSIDE monkeys do also!

Steps in Dividing Decimals
1. Make the divisor (outside number) a whole number by moving (swingin’) the decimal to the right as many places as it takes to make it a WHOLE NUMBER.
2. In MONKEY TERMS: Whatever the outside monkey does (how far it swings) the inside monkey does also. Then the monkey climbs up and sits on the roof!

What is actually happening . . .
When you move the decimal one place to the right to create a WHOLE number – you are actually multiplying it by 10!
When you move the decimal two places to the right to create a WHOLE number – you are actually multiplying it by 100!
Three?
