First, let’s break down each piece of the problem. We have the fraction, 4/10, which is also the dividend, and the whole number, or the divisor, which is 9:
Numerator of the dividend: 4
Denominator of the dividend: 10
Whole number and divisor: 9
So what is 4/10 Divided by 9? Let’s work through the problem, and find the answer in both fraction and decimal forms.
