Is there an easy way of getting digits to the right of the decimal point when a division results in decimals? The one way to do it is to multiply by 100 (for 2 decimal places), get the numbers, then subtract then divide then.... Is there an Easier method ?

The answer depends on what you want to do with the digits. Are you using a CPU capable of REAL math? For ordinary (BCD and Binary) division, the REMAINDER remains on the stack and can be retreived (after perhaps saving the quotient) with a POP command.
