Respuesta :

Given:
Inheritance: $45,600.00
Heirs: 22

We need to divide the inheritance by 22 so that each heir will have an equal share. 

$45,600.00 ÷ 22 = 2,072.73

This is how it's solve using long division:
                                
         2072.727     ⇒ rounded up to the nearest hundredths  2,072.73                      
22 | 45600.00
       44↓↓↓  ↓             *22 x 2
         160↓  ↓
         154↓  ↓             *22 x 7
             60  ↓  
             44  ↓              *22 x 2
             16.0
             15.4              *22 x 0.70
               0.60
               0.44             *22 x 0.02
               0.160
               0.154          *22 x 0.007
               0.006

    2072.727     ⇒ rounded up to the nearest hundredths  2,072.73
