(0.6)      Again 2 is smaller than 8, As it already has decimal point in the quotient, now 2 becomes 20.      Now 20 goes for 2 times in 8 leaving a remainder 4. (0.62)      Again 4 is smaller than 8, As it already has decimal point in the quotient, now 4 becomes 40.     Now 40 goes for 5 times in 8 leaving a remainder 0. (0.625)     Therefore, the decimal value of 58 is 0.625.   Now find a decimal value of 1117 and Discuss your at Discuss.
