Question

How do you evaluate a division problem

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Not wanting to be trite, i'd still suggest that you use a calculator for routine division.  Round off your answer (quotient) to an appropriate number of decimal places.

For example, 2/3 comes out to 0.66666 ... (repeating decimal).  You might want to round this off to 2 decimal places: 0.67.

The old fashioned "long division" is another method.

       0  .  6

    -----------

3  /   2  .  0   0   0

       0.    0  0    0

   ---------------------

        1.     8

and so on.  You still need to round off the quotient to a suitable number of decimal places.
