I'm re-learning manual long division because I'm trying to code it, but I am confused and befuddled because the manual process gives me a different answer from that which I get using the divide function in LibreOffice Calc.
Calc answer:
92068282 / 36 = 2557452.27777778 (rounded)
Manual steps:
2557452.22222

What have I missed?
Have I found the plug hole in the mathematical universe?
Are we all about to get sucked into a swirling galactic vortex?
D8 !
You missed bringing down the last $2$ in the dividend. That would add $\frac 2{36}\approx $0.055556$ to your answer.
