Code #1 : Example for /() method

# Ruby code for BigDecimal./() method

# loading BigDecimal
require 'bigdecimal'

# declaring BigDecimal
a = 42.1**13

# declaring BigDecimal
b = -BigDecimal("10")

# declaring BigDecimal
c = -(22 - 7.1) ** 10

# DIVISION RESULTS
puts "BigDecimal a / b : #{a/b}\n\n"
puts "BigDecimal b / c : #{b/c}\n\n"
puts "BigDecimal a / c : #{c/a}\n\n"

Output :

BigDecimal a / b : -0.1305170490200644E21

BigDecimal b / c : 0.18541177684682144225059299930550753841140048E-10

BigDecimal a / c : -4.132334206571191e-10

Code #2 : Example for /() method

# Ruby code for BigDecimal./() method

# loading BigDecimal
require 'bigdecimal'

# declaring BigDecimal
a = 12**12 - 27

# declaring BigDecimal
b = BigDecimal('10')-(22 - 7.1) ** 10

# declaring BigDecimal
c = BigDecimal('-3')

# DIVISION RESULTS
puts "BigDecimal a / b : #{a/b}\n\n"
puts "BigDecimal b / c : #{b/c}\n\n"
puts "BigDecimal a / c : #{c/a}\n\n"

Output :

BigDecimal a / b : -0.16531500266815313339085797797359551950417546414E2

BigDecimal b / c : 0.179780022065447E12

BigDecimal a / c : -0.336469964354864161144849420060934E-12
