0.75 / 45
Convert the decimal to a fraction:
= (75/100) / 45
Simplify the fraction:
= (3/4) / 45
Flip the denominator and multiply:
= (3/4) * (1/45)
= 3/(4*45)
= 3/180
Divide numerator and denominator by 3:
= 1/60

Method 1:
45 / 0.75 = 45 / (3/4) = (45)(4)/3 = 180/3 = 60
Method 2:
45 / 0.75 = 4500/75 = 900/15 = 300/5 = 60

45 / 0.75 = 60
Another way:
45 / (3/4) = 45 * 4/3 = 180/ 3 or 60

.75/45 = .05/3 = .01666. Do not move the decimal. Reduce the fraction if you want to to obtain smaller numbers to work with.
