Answer: 16.7901

Step-by-step explanation: when dividing decimals, you need to make the divisor a whole number.
So, in this case you move the decimal point on 0.081 until it is a whole number.
then it would be 81 after moving the point 3 times to the right.

Now to make it even, you need to move the decimal point on 1.36: 3 times. You will then get: 1,360 divided by 81

And add back the decimal point once you divide.
