Answer:

approximately 0.567088608.

Explanation:

The division of 1.28 by 2.26 can be done as follows:

  1. 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.
  2. Write the remainder (1) over the dividend, keeping the same decimals: 1.28 ÷ 2.26.
  3. Multiply the whole number part of the divisor (2) by the result of the division in step 1 (0) to get 0.
  4. Subtract this result (0) from the whole number part of the dividend (1) to get 1.
  5. Write the result of step 4 (1) as a decimal over the same number of decimals as the dividend: 1.
  6. Repeat steps 3 to 5 using this new number (1) as the dividend until you reach the desired precision.
  7. To get the final result, place the decimal point in the result according to the number of decimals in the dividend.
