Answer:

0.875

Explanation:

16 cannot go into 14 so add a decimal point and a 0 after the 14 to make 14.0

The 14.0 acts like 140

16 x 8 = 128

140-128 =12

Add another 0 and bring it down next to the 12

Now you have 120

16 x 7 = 112

120-112 = 8

Add another 0 and bring it down next to the 8

Now you have 80

16 x 5 = 80 exactly

80-80 = 0

Now you have your answer, 0.875
