This means there is a division. But here you first solve the numerator (upper part) by multiplying 228 by 12, get a result which will be divided by 24.
In this case, the result of:
228x12Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â 2736
----------- = ------------- = 114

the line indicates the mathematical operator called division. Is that really your question or am I misinterpreting it?
