Dividing decimals worksheets

Each print is a different sheet with its own answer key. You don't need to sign up.

    Dividing decimals worksheets for fifth grade put a decimal under the long division bracket with a whole number divisor, like 9.6 ÷ 8. The one new step comes first: set the decimal point in the quotient directly above the point in the dividend.

    Sixth grade divides by a decimal, written horizontally: 4.8 ÷ 0.6. The move is to shift both decimal points the same number of places until the divisor is whole (48 ÷ 6), because multiplying both numbers by ten doesn't change the answer.
