      Our question is:
      2.5/0.001

      Well, we can just plug in these values in a calculator and obtain our answer. However, let us learn how to do this manually:

      2.5/0.001

      We can also write this as:
        2.5   
      1/1000

      To solve divisions with fractions in denominators we can multiply the number with the reciprocal of the denominator. So, we will write:

      2.5 x 1000
                 1
      = 2.5 x 1000

      Just shift the decimal place in 2.5 by 3 place:
      2.5 x 1000
      = 2500

      So, your answer is 2500.
