Answer:

52 / 5424 = 0.00958..

198 / 8549 = 0.0231 ..

Explanation:

52 / 5424

First of all, you need to add 0 plus a coma → 0.

52 becomes 520, but this value is smaller than 5424, so we need to add another 0

5200 → another 0 → 52000

So now, we have 52000 / 5424.

We start, 5424 . 10 = 54240, we are higher than 52000, so let's try 9

5424 . 9 = 48816, great!

52000 - 48816 = 3184

This is smaller than 5424, so we need a zero, again. But we do not add 0 to the result, because we are in the decimal side

31840 → 31840 / 5424. We would try 6,

5424 . 6 = 32544. It's bigger!, We use 5

5424 . 5 = 27120!

31840 - 27120 = 4720. We get another 0

47200, and we try 8.

5424 . 8 = 43392

47200 - 43392 = 3808.

So we are going to add 0, until we have four digits that can be divided by 5424 and decimals are infinte.

52 / 5424 = 0.00958..

198 / 8549 → Need to add, the first 0 to convert 198 to 1980

1980 = 0. → Another zero

19800 = 0.0 → 19800 / 8549

We try 2 → 8549 . 2 = 17098

19800 - 17098 = 2702 → we add 0

27020 / 8549 → We try 3

8549 . 3 = 25647 → 27020 - 25647 = 1373 → we add 0

13730 / 8549 → We use 1 → 13730 - 8549 = 5181

As decimal are infinite, we can express the result as:

198 / 8549 = 0.0231 ..
