Answer: 6.87

Explanation:

21.2 / 145.65

Move to the decimal to the right 1 time to make 21.2 to 212 and 145.65 to 1456.5.

Then you want to look for a number you can multipl 212 into the 1456.

In this case, 212 times 6 because it equals 1272.

If you multiply 212 times 7, you get 1484 (which is over the number of 1456 { we dont want that}).

Then you continue multiplying the number until you get to 0, or in other words, a remainder. In which I got, 6.870
