SYNOPSIS

PARAMETERS

		- The number being divided. Either a GMP number resource in PHP 5.5 and earlier, a GMP object in PHP 5.6 and later, or	a  numeric
		string provided that it is possible to convert the latter to a number.

	      o $d
		-  The number that $a is being divided by. Either a GMP number resource in PHP 5.5 and earlier, a GMP object in PHP 5.6 and later,
		or a numeric string provided that it is possible to convert the latter to a number.
