Re: Division
In problems like this, the first thing to is to reduce the fraction to its lowest terms:
[list=*]
[*]
[/list]
so you’ll be doing the following long division:
[list=*]
[*]
[/list]
If the denominator ends with one or more 0, you can shift the decimal point in the numerator to get rid of the 0:
[list=*]
[*]
[/list]
giving
[list=*]
[*]
[/list]
