First, you need to make the divisor a whole number, and then you make the dividend a whole number.

1.) 0.0056 divided by 0.004 = (0.0056 x 1000) x (0.004 x 1000)

You should make it a whole number by multiplying it by a power of ten.

2.) *5.6 divided by 4

Then divide.

3.) Answer : 0.0056 divided by 0.004 = 1.4
