17/10 as a decimal????????

That would be 1.7. General rule of thumb: if dividing by 10, 100, etc, move the decimal on the top to the left as many times as there are zeroes on the bottom. So in the case of 17/10, move the decimal ONE place left, as there is one zero on the bottom.

It's 1.7

17 divided by 10 = 1.7

1 + 7/10 = 1 • 7

17/10
= 17 ÷ 10
= 1.7

When dividing any number by ten, move the decimal point one to the left.
So: 17.0 becomes: 17.0

1.7 see because i would be 1 7/10 and the 10 would move the decimal point over to become 1.7

1.7

It's easy to get the answer. It's just 17 divided by 10. (17/10)

Use your calculator: 1.7

Or, when you divide by a 10/100/etc. then move the decimal spot to the left by how many zeros appear.

17.0 divided by 10 would be 1.70
17.0 divided by 100 would be 0.170

If you multiply, you just move the decimal point to the right instead.

17.0 times 10 would be 170
17.0 times 100 would be 1,700

wouldn't it be like 0.17? Maybe I am just stupid haha I forget how to do this!
