The [[/]] mathematical operator performs decimal point division on a numerical value.


{{PageSyntax}} 
: {{Parameter|return_value}} = {{Parameter|number}} [[/]] {{Parameter|divisor}}


{{PageDescription}}
* Number value can be any literal or variable numerical type.
* Return values can be any literal or variable numerical type, but [[SINGLE]] or [[DOUBLE]] type decimal point returns are likely.
* Values returned may be expressed using exponential or [[scientific notation]] using '''E''' for SINGLE or '''D''' for DOUBLE precision.
* Use the [[\|\ integer division]] operator to guarantee [[INTEGER]] or [[LONG]] return values.
* Division and multiplication operations are performed before addition and subtraction in QBasic's order of operations.
