Question

What is 52.0 divided by 21

Answer 1

Going through long division:  We see that 21 goes into 52 twice, with a remainder of 10.  Bringing down the first 0 after '21,' we have '100' to divide by 21; the quotient is 4 and the remainder 16.  Bringing down the 2nd '0' after 21, we now have '160' to divide by 21; the quotient is 7 with a remainder of 13.  So far we have 2.47 as our quotient.  We can continue this process as far as desired.
