Decimal.Division(Decimal, Decimal) Operator

public:
 static System::Decimal operator /(System::Decimal d1, System::Decimal d2);

public:
 static System::Decimal operator /(System::Decimal d1, System::Decimal d2) = System::Numerics::IDivisionOperators<System::Decimal, System::Decimal, System::Decimal>::op_Division;

public static decimal operator /(decimal d1, decimal d2);

static member ( / ) : decimal * decimal -> decimal

Public Shared Operator / (d1 As Decimal, d2 As Decimal) As Decimal

The result of dividing d1 by d2.

The Division method defines the operation of the division operator for Decimal values. It enables code such as the following:

using System;

public class Example
{
   public static void Main()
   {
      Decimal number1 = 16.8m;
      Decimal number2 = 4.1m;
      Decimal number3 = number1 / number2;
      Console.WriteLine("{0:N2} / {1:N2} = {2:N2}",
                        number1, number2, number3);
   }
}
// The example displays the following output:
//        16.80 / 4.10 = 4.10

let number1 = 16.8m
let number2 = 4.1m
let number3 = number1 / number2
printfn $"{number1:N2} / {number2:N2} = {number3:N2}"

// The example displays the following output:
//        16.80 / 4.10 = 4.10

Module Example
   Public Sub Main()
      Dim number1 As Decimal = 16.8d 
      Dim number2 As Decimal = 4.1d 
      Dim number3 As Decimal = number1 / number2
      Console.WriteLine("{0:N2} / {1:N2} = {2:N2}", 
                        number1, number2, number3)
   End Sub
End Module
' The example displays the following output:
'       16.80 / 4.10 = 4.10

If the language you're using doesn't support custom operators, call the Divide method instead.

The equivalent method for this operator is Decimal.Divide(Decimal, Decimal)

• Divide(Decimal, Decimal)
