Answer:
approximately 0.567088608.
Explanation:
The division of 1.28 by 2.26 can be done as follows:
- Divide the whole number part of the dividend (1) by the whole number part of the divisor (2): 1 ÷ 2 = 0 with a remainder of 1.
- Write the remainder (1) over the dividend, keeping the same decimals: 1.28 ÷ 2.26.
- Multiply the whole number part of the divisor (2) by the result of the division in step 1 (0) to get 0.
- Subtract this result (0) from the whole number part of the dividend (1) to get 1.
- Write the result of step 4 (1) as a decimal over the same number of decimals as the dividend: 1.
- Repeat steps 3 to 5 using this new number (1) as the dividend until you reach the desired precision.
- To get the final result, place the decimal point in the result according to the number of decimals in the dividend.
