Notice that 812 is close to 810 and 17 is closer to 15 than to 20; thus, a possible estimate is


(810)/(15)=54

However, 800/20 is a more straightforward approximation. Both can be used since you are not being asked for a specific approximation.

Partial-quotients division

Thus, the answer is quotient equal to 47 and remainder equal to 13/17.
