To tackle the student's statement about \( 109.2 \div 6 \), let’s clarify: \( 1,092 \div 60 \) results in \( 18.2 \), which doesn’t equal \( 109.2 \div 6 \) that equals \( 18.2 \) as well. The confusion here comes from the decimal placement! Division by 6 is quite straightforward, but misplacing the decimal while adjusting numbers can lead to hiccups. For the second part of your question, two accurate division expressions are \( 611.2 \div 32 \) and \( 6112 \div 320 \). Both simplify to the same result as \( 61.12 \div 3.2 \). When calculated, \( 61.12 \div 3.2 \) equals \( 19.1 \). This shows how multiplying both the numerator and denominator by the same factor can maintain the value of a fraction!
