Divide 131.58 by 215.

215 × 6 = 1290

215 ) 131.58 ( 6

        1290

------------------

         258

215 × 1 = 215

215 ) 131.58 ( 61

        1290

------------------

         258

         215

------------------

           430

 

215 × 2 = 430

215 ) 131.58 ( 61.2

        1290

------------------

         258

         215

------------------

           430

           430

-----------------

              0

Dividend = Divisor × Quotient + Remainder

131.58 = 215 × 61.2 + 0

Therefore, the quotient is 61.2
