105 divided by 2 equals 52.5. To understand this, let’s break it down:
When you divide 105 by 2, you are essentially trying to find out how many times 2 can fit into 105. Knowing that 2 goes into 10 five times (because 2 x 5 = 10), we can start there. However, 105 isn’t just 10; it’s 105. So we can separate it into manageable pieces. First, we divide 100 by 2, which gives us 50. Then, we still have the remaining 5 to divide by 2.
Now, when we divide 5 by 2, we get 2 with a remainder of 1. The remainder can be expressed as a decimal by continuing the division. So, taking that remainder of 1, we can add a decimal point to get 1.0, and now, in a sense, we are dividing 10 by 2, which equals 5.
Putting it all together, we get 50 from dividing the 100, 2 from dividing the 5, and the total is 52.5. Therefore, 105 divided by 2 is 52.5.
