How to work it out

Ask how many times 2 fits into 89. 2 × 44 = 88, and 2 × 45 = 90 is too big, so 2 goes into 89 exactly 44 times with 89 − 88 = 1 left over.

Turning the remainder into a decimal

The remainder 1 is 1/2 of another 2, and 1 ÷ 2 = 0.5. So 89 ÷ 2 = 44 + 0.5 = 44.5.

Check your answer

Multiply back: 44 × 2 + 1 = 88 + 1 = 89. ✓
