Remarks
The Division method defines the division operation for BigInteger values. It enables code such as the following:
BigInteger num1 = 100045632194;
BigInteger num2 = 90329434;
BigInteger quotient = num1 / num2;
let num1 = 100045632194I
let num2 = 90329434I
let quotient = num1 / num2
Dim num1 As BigInteger = 100045632194
Dim num2 As BigInteger = 90329434
Dim quotient As BigInteger = num1 / num2
Languages that do not support custom operators and operator overloading can call the Divide method instead.
The equivalent method for this operator is BigInteger.Divide(BigInteger, BigInteger)
