You do a long division, adding decimal digits until you get a remainder of zero (terminating decimal) or a repeating pattern of decimal digits.

A number is divisible by another when the remainder of the division is zero.

When I did my division, the answer was 32 and the remainder was Zero
When the remainder is zero the answer is a whole number. Put that number over 1 for an improper fraction.
Division by zero is not possible in arithmetic.
The concept of divisibility (division without remainder) makes sense only for integers, not for fractions. Any non-zero fraction goes into another fraction.
-9 over anything but zero is a fraction. Division by zero is undefined.

To convert a remainder into a fraction, you can simply place the remainder over the divisor. For example, if you have a remainder of 2 when dividing 7 by 3, you can express it as 2/3. To convert the remainder into a decimal, divide the remainder by the divisor. In the same example, dividing 2 by 3 would give you 0.666... or 0.67 when rounded to two decimal places.
A number is divisible by another when the remainder of the division is zero.
a repeating decimal
You undertake a long division. Any fraction is a rational number and so its decimal representation must be terminating or recurring. A terminating decimal will mean that the long division reaches a point when the remainder is zero. A recurring decimal sequence is equivalent to the long division going through a cycle of remainders.
