How many times does 4973 go into 850? 0 so put a above the division bar and do 850 - 0 = 850. Carry a zero down making 850 into 8500. How many times does 4973 go into 8500? 1 so put it above the division bar and subtract 4973 from 8500 = 3527. Carry down a zero to make 3527 into 35270. How many times does 4973 go into 35279? 7 so write it above the division bar. Above the division bar, you should have 0.017. Round it to the nearest hundredth, which is 0.02 since 7 rounds up a number.
