From the problem you know two things. The two numbers have a quotient of 9 and a difference of 56.   Step 1: Write these facts as equations.  x/y = 9   x-y = 56  â¦  Step 2: Take one equation and solve for one of the variables.ou meant to say What is the quotient for 210 divided by 9. 210 divided by 9 will not be a whole number. The trick for seeing if it is, is doing 2+1+0=3. 3 is not a multiple â¦ of 9.
12 inches to a foot, so 40 inches is approx 3.33333333333333333333333333333333333333 feet.
We can now say 6.37' approximatly equals 6' - 4 4/10. For fractions of an inch other than tenth's, take the decimal remainder of inches and divide by:0.125 for the number of eighth's 0.0625 for the number of sixteenth's 0.03125 for the number of thirty-second's 0.015625 for the number of sixty-fourth's, and so on.ake the decimal fraction of feet and divide by 0.08333 (1/12th) and this will give you inches and decimals of an inch. For example - 6.37 feet. Take the 0.37 feet and divide by 0.0833 = 4.44 inches .So for 6.37 ft. we can also say 6 ft. - 4.44 in. Now take the 0.44 in. and round it down to 0.4 which is 4/10.
