4 divided by 234...

234 goes into 4 zero times so we start with 0. and bring down a 0

234 goes into 40 zero times so we now have 0.0 and bring down another 0

234 goes into 400 one time so we have 0.01

400 - 234 = 166 bring down a 0

234 goes into 1660 seven times so we have 0.017

1660 - 1638 = 22 bring down a 0

234 goes into 220 zero times so we have 0.0170 and bring down a 0

234 goes into 2200 nine times so we have 0.01709

2200 - 2106 = 94 bring down a 0

234 goes into 940 four times so we have 0.017094

940 - 936 = 4 bring down a 0

234 goes into 40 0 times bring down a 0

234 goes into 400 one time... this simply repeats.

The answer is 0.017094 repeating
