Here are the solutions for the short division problems. I have worked through each one step-by-step to ensure accuracy, rounding to 2 decimal places where necessary as instructed.
1. $7584 \div 8$
* $75 \div 8 = 9$ remainder $3$
* $38 \div 8 = 4$ remainder $6$
* $64 \div 8 = 8$
*
Answer: 948
2. $8845 \div 9$
* $88 \div 9 = 9$ remainder $7$
* $74 \div 9 = 8$ remainder $2$
* $25 \div 9 = 2$ remainder $7$
* Add a decimal point and a zero: $70 \div 9 = 7$ remainder $7$
* Add another zero: $70 \div 9 = 7$ remainder $7$
* The next digit would be 7, so we round up the second decimal place.
