Solve 52/47?

$$52 / 47 ?$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{52}{47}\approx 1.106382979$$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the 1^{st} digit 5 from dividend 52

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{47)}\phantom{1}\\47\overline{)52}\\\end{array}$$

Since 5 is less than 47, use the next digit 2 from dividend 52 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{47)}0\phantom{2}\\47\overline{)52}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 2^{nd} digit 2 from dividend 52

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{47)}0\phantom{3}\\47\overline{)52}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 47 to 52. We see that 1 \times 47 = 47 is the nearest. Now subtract 47 from 52 to get reminder 5. Add 1 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{47)}01\phantom{4}\\47\overline{)52}\\\phantom{47)}\underline{\phantom{}47\phantom{}}\\\phantom{47)9}5\\\end{array}$$

Since 5 is less than 47, stop the division. The reminder is 5. The topmost line 01 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 1.

$$\text{Quotient: }1 \text{Reminder: }5$$

Factor

$$\frac{2 ^ {2} \cdot 13}{47} = 1\frac{5}{47} = 1.1063829787234043$$
