...exceed those in the dividend, make them equal by annexing ciphers to the dividend, and the quotient will be a whole number. NOTE 2. — When there is...figures enough in the number, prefix ciphers. Thus 1.25 -i- 10 = .125 ; and 1.7 -^ 100 = .017. Proof. — The proof is the same as in division of simple numbers.... | |

...If the denominator be 10, or any power of 10, we can at once express it as a decimal by placing the point as many places to the left as there are ciphers in the divisor. Sometimes the divisor will not terminate, but the same figures will be repeated over again. Decimals... | |

When a decimal number is to be divided by 10, 100, 1000, &c., remove the decimal point as many places to the left as there are ciphers in the divisor, and if there be not figures enough in the number, prefix ciphers.
