Thank you. I had a feeling that would be a long decimal, so I asked it on this site. I can't get long numbers on my calculator, so that's why. Thank you again.
Thank you Ms. Sue I only saw the first answer because I didn't refresh the page when I was typing. Thank you though.
You both helped a lot.
You're welcome, Brady.
To find the division of two numbers, you can simply divide the dividend (the number being divided) by the divisor (the number the dividend is being divided by). In this case, the dividend is 62.8759 and the divisor is 1.4.
Dividing 62.8759 by 1.4 can be solved as follows:
Step 1: Write down the dividend and divisor.
Dividend: 62.8759
Divisor: 1.4
Step 2: Perform the division.
Start by dividing the first digit of the dividend (6) by the divisor (1.4). The quotient for this division will be the first digit of the quotient.
6 divided by 1.4 is approximately 4.2857 (rounded to four decimal places). Therefore, the first digit of the quotient is 4.
Step 3: Subtract the product of the first digit and the divisor from the current dividend digit.
Multiply the divisor (1.4) by the quotient digit (4), which gives 5.6.
Subtract 5.6 from 6 to get 0.4.
Step 4: Bring down the next digit from the dividend.
Bring down the next digit (2) from the dividend to the remainder you obtained (0.4).
Step 5: Repeat steps 2 to 4 until you reach the desired level of accuracy.
Divide 2 (the new dividend) by 1.4 (the divisor) to get 1.4286 as the next decimal place of the quotient.
Subtract the product of 1.4286 (the new quotient digit) and 1.4 (the divisor) from 2 to get 0.5714.
Step 6: Continue this process of dividing, subtracting, and bringing down digits until you reach the desired level of accuracy.
Continuing the steps, we get the following quotient: 44.9107 (rounded to four decimal places).
Therefore, 62.8759 divided by 1.4 is approximately equal to 44.9107 (rounded to four decimal places).
Remember, you can always use a calculator to obtain the exact quotient quickly and accurately.
