Solve 97/50

$$\frac{ 97 }{ 50 }$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{97}{50}=1.94$$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the 1^{st} digit 9 from dividend 97

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{50)}\phantom{1}\\50\overline{)97}\\\end{array}$$

Since 9 is less than 50, use the next digit 7 from dividend 97 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{50)}0\phantom{2}\\50\overline{)97}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 2^{nd} digit 7 from dividend 97

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{50)}0\phantom{3}\\50\overline{)97}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 50 to 97. We see that 1 \times 50 = 50 is the nearest. Now subtract 50 from 97 to get reminder 47. Add 1 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{50)}01\phantom{4}\\50\overline{)97}\\\phantom{50)}\underline{\phantom{}50\phantom{}}\\\phantom{50)}47\\\end{array}$$

Since 47 is less than 50, stop the division. The reminder is 47. The topmost line 01 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 1.

$$\text{Quotient: }1 \text{Reminder: }47$$

Factor

$$\frac{97}{2 \cdot 5 ^ {2}} = 1\frac{47}{50} = 1.94$$
