To convert 6715 to a decimal using long division, we need to determine what 6715 divided by 1000 is (since moving the decimal point two places to the left converts it to a decimal).
Here's how you can divide 6715 by 1000:
- Set up the division: We want to divide 6715 by 1000.
- Perform the division:
- 1000 goes into 6715 six times (since 1000 * 6 = 6000).
- After subtracting 6000 from 6715, we're left with 715.
- Bring down the next two zeros from 1000 becoming 71500.
- 1000 goes into 71500 seventy-one times (since 1000 * 71 = 71000).
- After subtracting 71000 from 71500, we're left with 500.
- Bring down another zero making it 5000.
- 1000 goes into 5000 five times (since 1000 * 5 = 5000).
So when we complete the long division, we find:
Thus, the response is:
6.715
