Rationale: To divide by a decimal fraction, first move the decimal point in the divisor enough places right to make it a whole number. Moving the decimal point to the left would decrease its value and keep it a decimal fraction. Moving it one or two places right or left may or may not make it a whole number, and it must be a whole number to correctly conduct the division.
