document.write( "Question 1199403: say you divide 75.92 by 1.3
\n" );
document.write( "I multiplied 75.92 by 100 so it becomes 7592
\n" );
document.write( "I also multiplied 1.3 by 10 to get a whole number , 13
\n" );
document.write( "Then, I divided the whole numbers (7592 division 13 ) and got 584
\n" );
document.write( "Now, I divided 584 by 10 and 100 since I want to reverse the multiplication I did before and so I get : 0.584
\n" );
document.write( "But that is not the correct answer . So , then How do I work such problems please? \n" );
