The '''/''' mathematical operator performs decimal point division on a numerical value.
{{PageSyntax}}
::: return_value = number '''/''' divisor
{{PageDescription}}
* Number value can be any literal or variable numerical type.
* '''Divisor (second value) must not be a value of 0 to .5'''. This will create a [[ERROR Codes|"Division by zero" error!]] due to [[CINT]] rounding.
* 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.
