Answer

$17.11$

Work Step by Step

Move the decimal points 4 places to the right to get to whole divisors, then: \[ \begin{array}{rll} & 17.105 & \text{(Quotient)} \\ \hline 38\,\big) & 650.000 & \\ & \underline{646} & \text{(38 × 17)} \\ & \phantom{0}4.000 & \\ & \phantom{0}\underline{3.800} & \text{(38 × 0.1)} \\ & \phantom{0}0.2000 & \\ & \phantom{0}\underline{0.1900} & \text{(38 × 0.005)} \\ & \phantom{0}0.0100 & \text{(Remainder)} \\ \end{array} \] We round the result: $17.105\approx 17.11$
