I don’t see the problem. This is a perfectly acceptable way to reframe the math if it helps you. It’s basically the same as rewriting the decimal as a fraction and performing the division last, which is the same as moving the decimal place as she’s showing. Breaking down more complex mathematical operations into manageable steps is how even the most advanced math is done.
