(45÷5)×100

9×100

900

Step 1

Step 2

Step 3

Answer 1

4500/5 = 900

There is no need for more than one step since 5 is a factor of 4500.

Still, one can reduce it first:

 

One can cancel the denominator, 5, into either the 45 or the 100:

 

4500/5 = 45(100)/5 = 9(100) = 900
 
4500/5 = 45(100)/5 = 45(20) = 900
