Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To divide two decimals, we need to move the decimal point of the divisor (2.8) to the right until it becomes a whole number. Remember that whatever we do to the divisor, we also need to do to the dividend (10.276).

Therefore, we can move the decimal point of 2.8 one place to the right to get 28. We also need to move the decimal point of 10.276 one place to the right to get 102.76.

Now we can perform the division:

102.76 ÷ 28 = 3.67

Therefore, the answer is C.
