When dividing 592 by 9.25, how many zeros will be placed in the dividend?

No doubt, the expeced answer is 2. This is because you would ordinarily change the problem to 59200/925 for long division by hand.

For this quotient, you don't need any, because the quotient is 64, a multiple of 4, so the numbers being subtracted are always integers.

If you were dividing 591 by 9.25, you would need an infinite number of zeros—because the decimal portion of the quotient is a repeating decimal with a period of 3 digits.
