Rounding Decimals
Step 1. Identify the place
value of the digit you want
to round
Step 3. Drop all digits to the right
of the identified digit
.3272727
.337272
Step 2. Identify the digit to the right.
If 5 or more, increase the identified digit
by 1. If less than 5 do not change

Converting Decimal Fractions to Decimals
2 Steps
Fraction
1. Count the number of zeros 3
in the denominator.
10
2. Place the numerator of the
3
decimal fraction to the
100
right of the decimal point
the same number of
3
places as you have zeros
1,000
in the denominator. Do
3
not go over the total
10,000
number of denominator
zeros.

Dividing Decimals
Step 1. Make the divisor a
whole number by moving
the decimal point to the right
Step 2. Move the decimal point
in the dividend to the right
the same number of places
as in step 1. If there are not
enough places, add zeros to the right
of the dividend.
Step 3. Place the decimal point
in the quotient above the
new decimal point in the
dividend. Divide as usual.

Decimals Applications in Foreign Currency
The Wall Street Journal clip shows in China the price of Microsoft
Office was reduced to 199 yuan from an original price of 699
yuan. Using the currencies table lets us see what the original as
well as sales price is in U.S. dollars. In the table on page 74 1 yuan
equals $.1463. To find the original selling price you multiply the
number of yuan (699) times $.1463.
699 yuan x $.1463 = $102.26
The original selling price in U.S. Dollars is $102.26. To find the
new selling price in U.S. dollars, you multiply the number of yuan
199 times $.1463. The new selling price in U.S. dollars is $29.11.
$199 x $.1463 = $29.11
Table factor from currency table on page 74
Check $29.11 x 6.8348 = 198.96 yuan
Each 1 equal 6.8348 yuan

Problem 3-76:
Solution:
Mustard A
$.88 for 6 ounces
$.88 ÷ 6 = $.15
Mustard B
$1.61 for 12.5 ounces
$1.61 ÷ 12.5 = $.13
Laundry Detergent A
$2.00 for 37 ounces
$2.00 ÷ 37 = $.05
Canned Tuna A
$1.09 for 6 ounces
$1.09 ÷ 6 = $.18
Laundry Detergent B
$2.37 for 38 ounces
$2.37 ÷ 38 = $.06
Canned Tuna B
$1.29 for 8.75 ounces
$1.29 ÷ 8.75 = $.15
