Answer:
The error is:
He multiplied the dividend by 100 instead of 10
Step-by-step explanation:
∵ 1.926 ÷ 0.9 ⇒ means
1.926 = 1926/1000 ⇒ dividend
0.9 = 9/10 ⇒ divisor
* [tex]\frac{1926}{1000}[/tex] ÷ [tex]\frac{9}{10}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1926}{1000}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{10}{9}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1926}{100}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{1}{9}[/tex]
∵ 1926/100 = 19.26 ⇒ dividend
∴ 19.26 ÷ 9 = 1926/100 ÷ 9
19 ÷ 9 = 2 with remainder 1/9
12 ÷ 9 = 1 with remainder 3/9
36 ÷ 9 = 4 no remainder
∴ The quotient is 214/100 = 2.14
