Long division spacing












2














Original thread. I want to make the long division represented with floating point, but i have strange results. The numbers are not aligned (with yellow). And some numbers are far away(red).

TABstackMath
renewcommandstackalignment{l}
newcommandlminus{llap{$-$}}
{catcode`-=active
gdef -{lminus}}
newcommandminusactive{phantom{-}catcode`-=active}
setstacktabbedgap{3pt}
begin{document}
begin{tabular}{ll@{hspace{10ex}}c}

tabbedShortunderstack[r]{
&7,&6&2&4&:4=1,815\

  • Just out of curiosity -- Why did you set the result of the division to 1815 rather 1906?

  • You are right. The number is 7,26 not 7,246... Again making mistake for fast MEW.

    If you don't need to show the thousands-separator symbol (here: ,), the layout becomes much easier, and the typographic problem can be solved using just an array environment.
