1.3 divided by 0.0338 step by step please

Alright, so we have 1.3/0.0338. Since it's easier (in my opinion) to work with whole numbers, we can multiply the fraction by 10000/10000 to get 13000/338. With a bit of guess and check, we can see that
338*30=338*3*10
1 2               (what I carry is at the top)
338
x3
____
1114

Multiplying that by 10, I get 11140, which isn't enough. Trying 338*40, which is 338*4*10, we can add 338 to 338*3 to get 338*4 to get 

    2
1114
+338
____
1462

Multiplying that by 10, we get 14620, which is more than 13000 - something we don't want. Repeating this for 338*35 (which is 338*3.5*10, and 3.5 is 3*338+338/2)=11830 and which isn't enough, we then move on to something between 35 and 40 (the number doesn't matter), say 39. 338*39=338*3.9*10, and 338*3.9 is 338*3+338*9/10, and 
338*39 results to 13182, which is more than 13000 , but only by a tiny bit, so we can try 38 using the same method, getting 12844, which is smaller, so we know it's between 38 and 39. Finding the difference between 13000 and 12844, we get 13000-12844=156 and the answer is therefore 38+156/338

Pavlova-9 [17]
Well,

26.50

Since there are no more digits after that, 26.50 must already be rounded to the nearest hundredth.

26.50 is the final answer.

100 pounds of chocolate is packaged into boxes each containing 1^1/4 pounds of chocolate. Each box is then sold for $1.75. What
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

$140

Step-by-step explanation:

Total Amount of chocolate = 100 Pounds

Amount of chocolate in one box = 1 1/4 Pounds =  5/4 Pounds

Number of boxes = 100/(5/4) = 80 boxes

Cost of one box = $1.75

Total selling price = 80×1.75 = 140

The total selling price for all the boxes of chocolate is $140
