NEED HELP PLEASE ASAP!!!

Find the quotient of 213.21 and 15.8. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

13.4

1.4

1.3

13.5

Answer 1

13.5

Explanation:

213.21/15.8 ---> ((213.21)100)/((15.8)100)

21321/1580 = 13 R 781.

781/1580 = 0.49~~~

We only need to be concerned about the tenth and hundredth place digits.

The decimal tells us that it rounds up from 4, so it's 5.

Thus, the answers 13+0.5, which is 13.5
