Question

$$\frac{ 4.03 }{ 2.66 }$$

Answer

1.515037593985

Solution

Shift the decimals of both 4.03 and 2.66 to the right by 2 decimal places. (This is needed to convert 2.66 to 266, since long division must divide by a whole number.)

\[403\div 266\]

Use the algorithm method.

						1	.	5	1	5	0	3	7
2	6	6	\|	4	0	3	.
				2	6	6	.

				1	3	7	.	0
				1	3	3	.	0

						4	.	0	0
						2	.	6	6

						1	.	3	4	0
						1	.	3	3	0

									1	0	0	0
										7	9	8

										2	0	2	0
										1	8	6	2

											1	5	8

Therefore, $4.03\div 2.66\approx1.515037$.
