\n\nThe long division algorithm allows you to work this out by working from the left to the right of $\\var{dividend1}$ whilst respecting place value. We normally set up the division in the following way:
\n$\\var{divisor1} \\strut \\overline{\\smash{\\raise.09ex{)}}\\var{dividend1}}$
\nNote the positions of the numbers!
\nActually, since we want the answer to one decimal place we add as many zeroes after the decimal place to ensure we have two decimal places!
\n$\\var{divisor1} \\strut \\overline{\\smash{\\raise.09ex{)}}{\\var{dd3}}\\var{dd2}.\\!\\var{dd1}\\var{dd0}}$
\nWhy two? We use that extra digit to determine whether to round up or down.
\nThe algorithm (or procedure) seems complicated at first but you might find a mnemonic helps to remember the steps. We work left to right doing the following steps
\nand repeating until we run out of digits. The steps form the acronym DMSB. Popular mnemonics include \"Does McDonalds Sell Burgers?\", \"Dracula Must Suck Blood\" and \"Dead Mice Smell Bad\".
\n\nWe need to know the $\\var{divisor1}$ times tables or write the $\\var{divisor1}$ times tables out (be repeatedly adding $\\var{divisor1}$) so that we can refer to them.
\n\\[\\boxed{\\begin{align}1\\times\\var{divisor1}&=\\var{divisor1}\\\\2\\times\\var{divisor1}&=\\var{2*divisor1}\\\\3\\times\\var{divisor1}&=\\var{3*divisor1}\\\\4\\times\\var{divisor1}&=\\var{4*divisor1}\\\\5\\times\\var{divisor1}&=\\var{5*divisor1}\\\\6\\times\\var{divisor1}&=\\var{6*divisor1}\\\\7\\times\\var{divisor1}&=\\var{7*divisor1}\\\\8\\times\\var{divisor1}&=\\var{8*divisor1}\\\\9\\times\\var{divisor1}&=\\var{9*divisor1}\\end{align}}\\]

The tens column
\nD: The first thing we ask ourselves is, \"How many $\\color{green}{\\var{divisor1}}$s go into $\\color{green}{\\var{dd3}}$?\" (note this $\\var{dd3}$ actually represents $\\var{dd3*10}$ since it is in the tens column)
\nWell, none! $\\var{divisor1}$ is too big to fit into $\\var{dd3}$. So we write $\\color{red}0$ above the $\\var{dd3}$ in the tens column: Well, $\\var{qd3}\\times \\var{divisor1}=\\var{prod3}$ so $\\var{qd3}$ fit and we write $\\color{red}{\\var{qd3}}$ above the $\\var{dd3}$ in the tens column: Well, $\\var{qd3}\\times \\var{divisor1}=\\var{prod3}$ so $\\var{qd3}$ fits and we write $\\color{red}{\\var{qd3}}$ above the $\\var{dd3}$ in the tens column:
\n$\\begin{array}{r} \\color{red}{\\var{qd3}\\phantom{\\var{qd2}.\\!\\var{qd1}\\var{qd0}}} \\\\[-.5cm] \\color{green}{\\var{divisor1}} \\strut \\overline{\\smash{\\raise.09ex{)}}\\color{green}{\\var{dd3}}\\var{dd2}.\\!\\var{dd1}\\var{dd0}} \\end{array}$
\nM: Now since $\\color{green}{\\var{qd3}}\\times \\color{green}{\\var{divisor1}}=\\var{prod3}$ we write $\\color{red}{\\var{prod3}}$ underneath in the tens column:
\n$\\begin{array}{r} \\color{green}{\\var{qd3}\\phantom{\\var{qd2}.\\!\\var{qd1}\\var{qd0}}} \\\\[-.5cm] \\color{green}{\\var{divisor1}} \\strut \\overline{\\smash{\\raise.09ex{)}}{\\var{dd3}}\\var{dd2}.\\!\\var{dd1}\\var{dd0}} \\\\[-.5cm] \\color{red}{\\var{prod3}}\\phantom{5.55}\\end{array}$
\nS: We now do the subtraction, $\\color{green}{\\var{dd3}-\\var{prod3}}$, to determine the remainder (what remains to be divided) in the tens column.
\n$\\begin{array}{r} {\\var{qd3}\\phantom{\\var{qd2}.\\!\\var{qd1}\\var{qd0}}} \\\\[-.7cm] {\\var{divisor1}} \\strut \\overline{\\smash{\\raise.09ex{)}}\\color{green}{\\var{dd3}}\\var{dd2}.\\!\\var{dd1}\\var{dd0}} \\\\[-0.5cm] \\underline{\\color{green}{\\var{prod3}}}\\phantom{5.55}\\\\[-.7cm]\\color{red}{\\var{diff3}}\\phantom{5.55}\\end{array}$
\nB: Now we bring the $\\color{green}{\\var{dd2}}$ in the ones column down next to the remainder so that it forms $\\var{diff3}\\var{dd2}$.

\n\nThe ones column
\nD: Now we ask ourselves, \"How many $\\color{green}{\\var{divisor1}}$s go into $\\color{green}{\\var{b2}}$?\" (note this $\\var{b2}$ does actually represent $\\var{b2}$ since it is in the ones column)
\nWell, none! $\\var{divisor1}$ is too big to fit into $\\var{b2}$. So we write $\\color{red}0$ above the $\\var{dd2}$ in the ones column: Well, $\\var{qd2}\\times \\var{divisor1}=\\var{prod2}$ so $\\var{qd2}$ fit and we write $\\color{red}{\\var{qd2}}$ above the $\\var{dd2}$ in the ones column: Well, $\\var{qd2}\\times \\var{divisor1}=\\var{prod2}$ so $\\var{qd2}$ fits and we write $\\color{red}{\\var{qd2}}$ above the $\\var{dd2}$ in the ones column:

\nM: Now since $\\color{green}{\\var{qd2}}\\times \\color{green}{\\var{divisor1}}=\\var{prod2}$ we write $\\color{red}{\\var{prod2}}$ underneath in the ones column:

\nS: We now do the subtraction, $\\color{green}{\\var{b2}-\\var{prod2}}$, to determine the remainder (what remains to be divided) in the ones column.
\n$\\begin{array}{r} {\\var{qd3}{\\var{qd2}}\\phantom{.\\!\\var{qd1}\\var{qd0}}} \\\\[-.7cm] {\\var{divisor1}} \\strut \\overline{\\smash{\\raise.09ex{)}}{\\var{dd3}}{\\var{dd2}}.\\!\\var{dd1}\\var{dd0}} \\\\[-0.5cm] \\underline{{\\var{prod3}}}\\phantom{5.55}\\\\[-.7cm]\\color{green}{\\var{diff3}\\var{dd2}}\\phantom{.55}\\\\[-0.5cm]\\underline{\\color{green}{\\var{prod2}}}\\phantom{.55}\\\\[-0.5cm]\\color{red}{\\var{diff2}}\\phantom{.55}\\end{array}$

\n\nThe tenths column
\nD: Now we ask ourselves, \"How many $\\color{green}{\\var{divisor1}}$s go into $\\color{green}{\\var{b1}}$?\" (note this $\\var{b1}$ actually represents $\\var{b1/10}$ since it is in the tenths column)
\nWell, none! $\\var{divisor1}$ is too big to fit into $\\var{b1}$. So we write $\\color{red}0$ above the $\\var{dd1}$ in the tenths column: Well, $\\var{qd1}\\times \\var{divisor1}=\\var{prod1}$ so $\\var{qd1}$ fit and we write $\\color{red}{\\var{qd1}}$ above the $\\var{dd1}$ in the tenths column: Well, $\\var{qd1}\\times \\var{divisor1}=\\var{prod1}$ so $\\var{qd1}$ fits and we write $\\color{red}{\\var{qd1}}$ above the $\\var{dd1}$ in the tenths column:

\nM: Now since $\\color{green}{\\var{qd1}}\\times \\color{green}{\\var{divisor1}}=\\var{prod1}$ we write $\\color{red}{\\var{prod1}}$ underneath in the tenths column:

\nNow we could keep adding zeros and continue the procedure but we only needed to determine the second decimal place in order to correctly round to one decimal place and so we now stop the procedure.
\nSince the second decimal place was $\\var{qd0}$ we round up down to $\\var{ans}$. Therefore, $\\frac{\\var{dividend1}}{\\var{divisor1}}=\\var{ans}$ (1 dec. pl.).
