332/2 = 133

332/2=133

To divide 332 by 2 in base 4, we need to perform the division operation using base 4 arithmetic. Here's how you can do it step by step:

Step 1: Write down the division problem vertically:
______
2 | 3 3 2

Step 2: Start from the leftmost digit and divide it by 2. Write down the quotient (result of division) above the bar and the remainder to the right of it:
______
2 | 3 3 2
1

Step 3: Multiply the quotient by 2 and subtract it from the dividend (the original number being divided) to get the new dividend:
______
2 | 3 3 2
1
______
1
Step 4: Bring down the next digit (if any) from the dividend (332) and append it to the right of the remainder:
______
2 | 3 3 2
1
______
10

Step 5: Divide the new dividend (10) by 2 and repeat steps 3 and 4 until there are no more digits in the dividend:
______
2 | 3 3 2
1 0
0
________
0

Step 6: The quotient obtained from the last step represents the result when dividing 332 by 2 in base 4. Therefore, 332 (base 4) divided by 2 (base 4) equals 10 (base 4).

Please note that the remainder might be represented as a digit with a higher place value if it is greater than or equal to the divisor. In this case, you need to carry over the extra digits to the left. But since the divisor is 2 (base 4), the remainder will be either 0 or 1, which do not require carrying over extra digits.
