There are several ways. My preference with terminating decimals, is to carry out the division using the divisor without a decimal point. Then if the divisor had n digits after the decimal point, it is to move the decimal point in the quotient n places to the left.

So, to calculate 18/4.32,

first find 18/432 = 0.0416... with the 6 repeating

4.32 has two digits after the decimal point so move the decimal point two digits to the left to give the final answer as 4.16 with the 6 repeating.
