Answer:

1.95

Explanation:

We can use basic arithmetic to find the answer of your question through long division.

8.19/4.2 is basically 819/420, just multiplying both sides by 100 to get rid of the decimal point.

Using long division, we can subtract 420 from 819 to add 1 to the quotient and work with 399. Currently, our quotient is 1 with a remainder of 399

Since we can not get a positive number from 420-399, we must add a 0 to 3990 along with adding a decimal point to behind the 1. 420 can fit into 3990 9 times, so we add 9 after the decimal's point, and subtract 420*9=3780 from 3990, which is 210. Right now, our quotient is 1.9 with a remainder of 210.

Because we can not subtract 420 from 210 to get a positive number, we must add another 0 to 210 to get 2100. 420 can fit into 2100 5 times, so we remove 2100 from 2100, leaving no remainder. We also add 5 to the quotient, behind the 9. Now, our quotient is 1.95, the answer.
