Question

Find the value of 19 ÷ 99 (rounded off to three decimal places).

• A. 0.190
• B. 0.192
• C. 0.195
• D. 0.199

Answer 1

The correct option is B 0.192

Given: 19 ÷ 99

Using the long division, we have:

$$\begin{array}{c}\mathrm{0.1919..}\\ 99190\\ -\underset{–}{99}2\\ 910\\ -\underset{–}{891}\\ 190\\ -\underset{–}{99}\\ 910\\ -\underset{–}{891}2\\ 19\end{array}$$

Therefore,
19 ÷ 98 = 0.1919...
Rounding off to three decimal places,
0.1919.. = 0.192 (Since the digit at the fourth place is ≥ 5.)
