$0.75" or "3/4$

This is a trick to make the calculation process simpler to do in your head. I am showing you every step.

Write as: $(3.75)/5$

To 'get rid' of the decimal multiply by 1 but in the form where

$1=100/100$ giving

$(3.75)/5xx100/100" " = " "375/5 xx1/100$

$375-:5 = 75$

Now we apply: $" " 75xx1/100 = 0.75$
