You are correct 82p is a proportion of a pound as we say it in English. The relevant factor is 82p the "p" meaning 82 pence now each pence is 100th of a pound so if we have 82 of them we have 82 hundredths of a pound so that is written £0.82. it's still = to 82p but expressed as pounds it's 0.82.
This is a simple maths question which has been made complicated and I understand where Lankeela is coming from but, I would think most people have a calculator and if not, you can get them online.

Simple division made complicated by over-explaining.
Chris gave the answer but Lankeela was a bit confused with the 0 before the decimal point which just means 0 pounds.
Also, adding 355 after the 82 as that makes it precise.
The correct answer as Chris has said is eighty two and a half pence.

ok if you want the answer in pence you can just start with the total cost as being in pence, thats 16471 p, then divide by 1200 as you done already and that gives you the answer you feel comfortable with that's 82.355p. or around 82p to nearest penny
Or just forget all the noise, just say if total cost was a bit more at £200 that would mean a£1 each, so real answer is a bit less than £1 each. Does the exact answer matter.
I know you;ll probably say you dont want to know but you did ask how we get from £0.82 to 82p.
