2412283 / 0.0084

Question

give me the explanation

Answer 1

First the answer: 287176547.6 approx.

Now the explanation.

To get rid of the decimal point in the numerator we multiply top and bottom by 10000 because this number has 4 zeroes and there are 4 decimal places in the bottom: 24122830000/84.

4 goes into top and bottom: 6030707500/21.

Since 3×7=21 we can divide by 3 then 7: 6030707500/3=2010235833⅓.

Split the whole number and fraction and divide by 7 separately:

287176547+⁴⁄₇+¹⁄₂₁. Add the fractions together: ¹²⁄₂₁+¹⁄₂₁=¹³⁄₂₁.

So the complete answer is 287176547¹³⁄₂₁.
