Best Answer

By putting it into my calculator:

[1][.][6][7][÷][5][6][=]

and reading the display:

0.029821429

Alternatively, using pen and paper:

Using long division

write out the division and put the decimal point in the answer space immediately above the decimal point in 1.67

56 does not divide into 1, put 0 above 1

56 doesn't divide into 16, put 0 above 6

56 divides into 167 twice, put 2 above 7, write 112 (which is 2 x 56) under 167 and subtract, writing result (55) underneath.

Run out of digits, but as there is a decimal point, can write lots of zeros to right of the 7.

Bring down next digit which is a zero

56 divides into 550 nine times, put 9 next to2 in answer, write 504 (9 x 56) under 550 and subtract, writing result (46) underneath.

Repeat bringing down next digit and subtracting until subtraction results in zero or the required number of digits of the answer have been calculated.
