Understanding Division by Decimals

The video tutorial explains how to compute 3 divided by 0.75 by visualizing the problem using hundredths. It guides the viewer through the process of dividing three wholes into equal groups of 75 hundredths, using a color-coded visualization to illustrate the solution. The tutorial concludes by showing that 3 divided by 0.75 equals four groups of 75 hundredths.
