#67# with remainder #31#

or as a decimal expansion: #67.9393... = 67.bar(93)#

Explanation:

You can use long division to find:

#2242/33 = 67# with remainder #31#

or if you prefer:

#67 31/33#

or as a decimal expansion:

#2242/33 = 67.9393... = 67.bar(93)#

Notice, that as with all long divisions of whole numbers, the running remainder must eventually repeat (perhaps repeating #0#'s), resulting in a repeating pattern of digits in the quotient.
