Converting VBScript's Division Operator

Definition: Divides two numbers and returns a floating-point result.

Division Operator

Divide and conquer. We can’t make any promises regarding the conquer part of that statement, but in Windows PowerShell you can divide a pair of numbers by using / as the division operator. For example, this commands divides 761 by 11 and stores the value in the variable $a:

$a = 761 / 11

When you run this command and then echo back the value of $a you should get the following:

69.1818181818182
