Question 6

The result of dividing 18.104 by 0.002 is 9052.

Dividing 18.104 by 0.002 yields 9052, as the calculation involves determining how many times 0.002 fits into 18.104.

A) 9052

This option is correct because when performing the division 18.104 ÷ 0.002, the result is indeed 9052. This can be verified by converting the division into a multiplication problem: 18.104 is the same as 18.104 × 500, which equals 9052.

B) 0.09052

This option is incorrect because it represents a much smaller value than the result of the division. Dividing 18.104 by 0.002 does not yield a decimal in the hundred-thousandths place, but rather a whole number.

C) 9.052

This option is also incorrect. While it is a plausible result for a different division, 9.052 does not accurately represent the outcome of dividing 18.104 by 0.002. The actual result is significantly larger.

D) 9.52

This option is incorrect as well. Similar to option C, 9.52 is not a correct outcome of the division. It represents a value much lower than what is expected from the given numbers in the division.

Conclusion

The calculation confirms that the correct answer is 9052, as it accurately reflects the division of 18.104 by 0.002. All other options fail to represent the correct mathematical outcome, demonstrating a misunderstanding of division and the magnitude of the numbers involved.
