Step-by-step explanation: To solve this problem, we need to use long division. First, we divide 35 by 217 to get the quotient 0.16 and the remainder 14. Then, we repeat the process with the quotient 0.16 and the dividend 14: 0.16 x 14 = 2.16, with a remainder of 0. Dividing 2.16 by 217 gives us 0.01, with a remainder of 0. Finally, we multiply the result 0.01 by 14 to get the final answer: 0.014. Therefore, 35 divided by 217 is approximately 0.014.
