Answer 2

Answer:

39.3

Step-by-step explanation:

"7.86 divded by .2" should be rewritten as "7.86 divided by .2."  An easy way to approach this would be to move the decimal point in both numerator and denominator 2 places to the right, obtaining:

"786. divided by 20." or just "786 divided by 20"

Now divide 20 into 78.  We get 3 with a remainder of 18; bringing down the 6, we get the new dividend 186; 20 goes into 186 9 times, with a remainder of 6.  Bringing down a zero, we get 60 divided by 20, which is 3.

This results in the quotient 39.3.
