Solution

Your input: convert $$$\frac{1900}{24}$$$ into a decimal.

Write the problem in the special format:

$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccc}\phantom{7}&\phantom{9}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{1}&\phantom{6}&\phantom{6}&\phantom{6}&\phantom{6}\end{array}&\\24&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccc}1&9&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{llll}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$

Step 1

How many $$$24$$$'s are in $$$1$$$?

The answer is $$$0$$$.

Write down $$$0$$$ in the upper part of the table.

Now, $$$1-24 \cdot 0 = 1 - 0= 1$$$.

Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccccccc}\color{Brown}{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{7}&\phantom{9}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{1}&\phantom{6}&\phantom{6}&\phantom{6}&\phantom{6}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{24}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccccccc}\color{Brown}{1}& 9 \downarrow&0&0&.&0&0&0&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllllllll}-&\phantom{9}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}1&9&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$

Step 2

How many $$$24$$$'s are in $$$19$$$?

The answer is $$$0$$$.

Write down $$$0$$$ in the upper part of the table.

Now, $$$19-24 \cdot 0 = 19 - 0= 19$$$.

Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccccccc}0&\color{Crimson}{0}&\phantom{7}&\phantom{9}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{1}&\phantom{6}&\phantom{6}&\phantom{6}&\phantom{6}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{24}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccccccc}1&9& 0 \downarrow&0&.&0&0&0&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllllllll}-&\phantom{9}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}\color{Crimson}{1}&\color{Crimson}{9}&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{9}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}1&9&0&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$

Step 3

How many $$$24$$$'s are in $$$190$$$?

The answer is $$$7$$$.

Write down $$$7$$$ in the upper part of the table.

Now, $$$190-24 \cdot 7 = 190 - 168= 22$$$.

Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccccccc}0&0&\color{Red}{7}&\phantom{9}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{1}&\phantom{6}&\phantom{6}&\phantom{6}&\phantom{6}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{24}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccccccc}1&9&0& 0 \downarrow&.&0&0&0&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllllllll}-&\phantom{9}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}1&9&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{9}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}\color{Red}{1}&\color{Red}{9}&\color{Red}{0}&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{9}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}1&6&8&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&2&2&0&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$

Step 4

How many $$$24$$$'s are in $$$220$$$?

The answer is $$$9$$$.

Write down $$$9$$$ in the upper part of the table.

Now, $$$220-24 \cdot 9 = 220 - 216= 4$$$.

Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccccccc}0&0&7&\color{GoldenRod}{9}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{1}&\phantom{6}&\phantom{6}&\phantom{6}&\phantom{6}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{24}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccccccc}1&9&0&0&.& 0 \downarrow&0&0&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllllllll}-&\phantom{9}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}1&9&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{9}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}1&9&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{9}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}1&6&8&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&\color{GoldenRod}{2}&\color{GoldenRod}{2}&\color{GoldenRod}{0}&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{9}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&2&1&6&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&4&\phantom{.}&0\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$

Step 5

How many $$$24$$$'s are in $$$40$$$?

The answer is $$$1$$$.

Write down $$$1$$$ in the upper part of the table.

Now, $$$40-24 \cdot 1 = 40 - 24= 16$$$.

Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccccccc}0&0&7&9&.&\color{BlueViolet}{1}&\phantom{6}&\phantom{6}&\phantom{6}&\phantom{6}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{24}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccccccc}1&9&0&0&.&0& 0 \downarrow&0&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllllllll}-&\phantom{9}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}1&9&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{9}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}1&9&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{9}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}1&6&8&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&2&2&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{9}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&2&1&6&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&\color{BlueViolet}{4}&\phantom{.}&\color{BlueViolet}{0}\\&&-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&&&2&\phantom{.}&4\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&1&\phantom{.}&6&0\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$

Step 6

How many $$$24$$$'s are in $$$160$$$?

The answer is $$$6$$$.

Write down $$$6$$$ in the upper part of the table.

Now, $$$160-24 \cdot 6 = 160 - 144= 16$$$.

Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccccccc}0&0&7&9&.&1&\color{Chocolate}{6}&\phantom{6}&\phantom{6}&\phantom{6}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{24}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccccccc}1&9&0&0&.&0&0& 0 \downarrow&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllllllll}-&\phantom{9}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}1&9&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{9}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}1&9&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{9}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}1&6&8&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&2&2&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{9}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&2&1&6&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&4&\phantom{.}&0\\&&-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&&&2&\phantom{.}&4\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&\color{Chocolate}{1}&\phantom{.}&\color{Chocolate}{6}&\color{Chocolate}{0}\\&&-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&&&1&\phantom{.}&4&4\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&&&1&6&0\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$

Step 9

How many $$$24$$$'s are in $$$160$$$?

The answer is $$$6$$$.

Write down $$$6$$$ in the upper part of the table.

Now, $$$160-24 \cdot 6 = 160 - 144= 16$$$.

$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccccccc}0&0&7&9&.&1&6&6&6&\color{Purple}{6}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{24}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccccccc}1&9&0&0&.&0&0&0&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllllllll}-&\phantom{9}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}1&9&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{9}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}1&9&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{9}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}1&6&8&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&2&2&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{9}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&2&1&6&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&4&\phantom{.}&0\\&&-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&&&2&\phantom{.}&4\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&1&\phantom{.}&6&0\\&&-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&&&1&\phantom{.}&4&4\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&&&1&6&0\\&&&&-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&&&&&1&4&4\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&&&&1&6&0\\&&&&&-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&&&&&&1&4&4\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&&&&&\color{Purple}{1}&\color{Purple}{6}&\color{Purple}{0}\\&&&&&&-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&&&&&&&1&4&4\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&&&&&&1&6\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$

As can be seen, the digits are repeating with some period, therefore it is a repeating (or recurring) decimal: $$$\frac{1900}{24}=79.166 \overline{6}$$$

Answer: $$$\frac{1900}{24}=79.166\overline{6}$$$
