In this program we will see how to divide 16-bit number by an 8-bit number.
Write 8086 Assembly language program to divide 16-bit number stored in memory location offset 501. Divide it with 8-bit number stored in 500H. Also store result at memory offset 600.
8086 has DIV instruction to perform division. Take the 8-bit number into BL, and 16-bit number into AX. Now divide AX by BL. The result will be stored at AX.
We are taking two numbers 24CF / 2D = D1
