How to work it out

Ask how many times 10 fits into 87. 10 × 8 = 80, and 10 × 9 = 90 is too big, so 10 goes into 87 exactly 8 times with 87 − 80 = 7 left over.

Turning the remainder into a decimal

The remainder 7 is 7/10 of another 10, and 7 ÷ 10 = 0.7. So 87 ÷ 10 = 8 + 0.7 = 8.7.

Check your answer

Multiply back: 8 × 10 + 7 = 80 + 7 = 87. ✓
