There are two ways one divide 7 into 8. Or make 7/8 = to % because you can always move the decimal 2 spaces to the right.

7/8 = .875

OR..............................
7/8 = x/100
Cross Multiply
7 * 100 which equal's 700 then make that = to
8x here is what it looks like
700 = 8x then divide the 8 from x to get x along
700/8 ===== 87.5 -------> this is not the answer but is in % because when u have something over 100 it becomes a percentage. To have percent into decimal you have to move it two spaces to the left. You get .875

divide 7 by 8

You divide 7 by 8. Remember that since 7 is a whole number, there is a decimal point after it, and any numbers that appear in your quotient (your answer) after that decimal are fractional parts (tenths, hundredths, thousandths, etc.) You cannot divide 7 by 8, so the first # in your quotient (answer) will be zero. Put your decimal point after the zero. Now finish dividing the problem and you will have your answer.
