Problem
Answer
617/28

Both negative → positive result

     22 R 2
   ┌─────
 56│ 1234

56 doesn't go into 1, bring down 2

56 doesn't go into 12, bring down 3

56 goes into 123 → 2 times

2 × 56 = 112

123 − 112 = 11

Bring down 4 → 114

56 goes into 114 → 2 times

2 × 56 = 112

114 − 112 = 2

Remainder = 2

Write as a fraction:

123456 = 22 and 256

The GCD of 1234 and 56 is 2. Divide both by 2:

123456 = 61728

= 61728 ≈ 22.0357
