<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Bring down a 0 to make it 90, and divide 90 by 16.</p>
8
<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>16 goes into 90 five times (16 × 5 = 80). Write 5 in the quotient. Subtract 80 from 90, giving a remainder of 10.</p>

<p><strong>Step 5:</strong>Bring down another 0 to make it 100, and divide 100 by 16.</p>
10
<p><strong>Step 6:</strong>16 goes into 100 six times (16 × 6 = 96). Write 6 in the quotient. Subtract 96 from 100, giving a remainder of 4.</p>

<p><strong>Step 7:</strong>Bring down another 0 to make it 40, and divide 40 by 16.</p>
11
<p><strong>Step 7:</strong>Bring down another 0 to make it 40, and divide 40 by 16.</p>
12
<p><strong>Step 8:</strong>16 goes into 40 two times (16 × 2 = 32). Write 2 in the quotient. Subtract 32 from 40, giving a remainder of 8.</p>

<p><strong>Step 9:</strong>Bring down another 0 to make it 80, and divide 80 by 16.</p>
14
<p><strong>Step 10:</strong>16 goes into 80 five times (16 × 5 = 80). Write 5 in the quotient. Subtract 80 from 80, giving a remainder of 0. The division process ends here, giving us the decimal 0.5625 for the fractional part.</p>
