50k=U0.50?

$$\mathrm{50}{k}={U}\mathrm{0}.\mathrm{50}? \\ $$

((24000)/5)×5.50=26400  Dividend=((26400)/(5.50))×0.5=2400

$$\frac{\mathrm{24000}}{\mathrm{5}}×\mathrm{5}.\mathrm{50}=\mathrm{26400} \\ $$$${Dividend}=\frac{\mathrm{26400}}{\mathrm{5}.\mathrm{50}}×\mathrm{0}.\mathrm{5}=\mathrm{2400} \\ $$
