# --description--

Now let's divide one decimal by another.

# --instructions--

Change the `0.0` so that `quotient` will equal to `2.2`.

# --hints--

The variable `quotient` should equal `2.2`

```js
assert(quotient === 2.2);
```

You should use the `/` operator to divide 4.4 by 2

```js
assert(/4\.40*\s*\/\s*2\.*0*/.test(code));
```

The quotient variable should only be assigned once

```js
assert(code.match(/quotient/g).length === 1);
```

# --seed--

## --after-user-code--

```js
(function(y){return 'quotient = '+y;})(quotient);
```

## --seed-contents--

```js
var quotient = 0.0 / 2.0; // Change this line
```

# --solutions--

```js
var quotient = 4.4 / 2.0;
```
