Divide sign is alt(option) and question mark :)
Where is the alt (option) key on an iPad?
My apologies, I use a wireless keyboard with my ipad since I prefer to touch type.
An additional option is that once you type the division symbol using the Japanese Kana keyboard, you can then copy it and set a keyboard shortcut. I just set "dv" to ÷ auto-expand to and you can do this without having to keep the Japanese keyboard enabled. 😉
The keyboard shortcut is my favorite method too. If you can copy/paste it to keyboard shortcuys you can add it. Just like this micon symbol. μ.
...on second thought, a better shortcut would be "-/-," which mimics the ÷ symbol.
I use ds as my shortcut for a ÷ . I'm just checking to see if the shortcut posts.
Edit. Success !
