1. Problem Description

The problem is to calculate the result of the division: 4.65÷3.54.65 \div 3.5.

2. Solution Steps

To divide 4.654.65 by 3.53.5, we can rewrite the division as a fraction:
4.653.5\frac{4.65}{3.5}
To get rid of the decimal points, we can multiply both the numerator and the denominator by 100:
4.65×1003.5×100=465350\frac{4.65 \times 100}{3.5 \times 100} = \frac{465}{350}
Now we can simplify the fraction by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor (GCD).
Both 465 and 350 are divisible by 5:
465÷5350÷5=9370\frac{465 \div 5}{350 \div 5} = \frac{93}{70}
Now we perform long division to find the decimal representation of 9370\frac{93}{70}.
93÷70=193 \div 70 = 1 with a remainder of 2323.
So, 9370=1+2370\frac{93}{70} = 1 + \frac{23}{70}.
Now, convert the remainder into a decimal: 2370=230700\frac{23}{70} = \frac{230}{700}.
230÷70=3230 \div 70 = 3 with a remainder of 2020.
So we have 1.31.3 so far. The remainder is 2020, so we can write it as 200200 and divide by 7070.
200÷70=2200 \div 70 = 2 with a remainder of 6060.
So we have 1.321.32 so far. The remainder is 6060, so we can write it as 600600 and divide by 7070.
600÷70=8600 \div 70 = 8 with a remainder of 4040.
So we have 1.3281.328 so far. The remainder is 4040, so we can write it as 400400 and divide by 7070.
400÷70=5400 \div 70 = 5 with a remainder of 5050.
So we have 1.32851.3285 so far.
4.65÷3.5=1.32857...4.65 \div 3.5 = 1.32857...
We can perform the division:

4. 65 / 3.5 = 1.32857142857...

Rounding to two decimal places gives 1.

3. However, the question doesn't mention rounding so we'll leave the exact value by writing as a fraction or continuing the division until we see repetition.

We have 9370\frac{93}{70}.
Performing the long division:

1. 3285714...

We can write the number as 1.3285714 repeating.
Another approach:
4.653.5=465350=9370\frac{4.65}{3.5} = \frac{465}{350} = \frac{93}{70}.
Dividing 93 by 70, we get 1.328571428571...
A good approximation is 1.

3. Let's find the precise answer. We want $\frac{465}{350}$. Multiplying the numerator and denominator by 2, we get $\frac{930}{700}$. This gives $1 \frac{230}{700} = 1 \frac{23}{70}$. This is equal to 1.3285714...

3. Final Answer

1. 328571428571... or $\frac{93}{70}$
