To divide 35 by 97.3 we first get rid of the decimal .As there is one digit after decimal so we multiply numerator and denominator by 10.[tex] \frac{35}{97.3} .\frac{10}{10} =\frac{350}{973} [/tex]
We now divide 350 by 973 .350 is smaller than 973 so we put a decimal at top and add a 0 next to 350.
we now look for a number which when multiplied by 973 is less than or equal to 3500 . 973x3=2919.
This is then subtracted to 3500 to give 581.
As there is a decimal at the top we put a 0 next to 581 so that our new number is 5810.
We now divide 5810 by 973.
973x5=4865
5 is written at top and 4865 is subtracted to 5810 to give 945
We can add a 0 next to 945 to get the new number as 9450
973x9=8757
9 is written at top
THis is subtracted to 5810 to give 693
