Big Seven Method for Decimals

The video explains the Big Seven Division Method, demonstrating its application to decimal numbers. It starts with a simple example of dividing 37.5 by 3, showing how to handle decimals by initially ignoring them and adjusting the result later. The method is further illustrated with a more complex example involving a larger number, emphasizing the importance of rounding to the nearest hundredth. The video concludes by inviting viewers to ask questions or request additional examples.
