4. Dividing numbers examples





1. Find `79 / 3`

Solution:

Solution is
 26
379
6  = 3 × 2
 19
18 = 3 × 6
  1

`:.` 79 `-:` 3 = 26 Remainder 1
3 table
3×1=3
3×2=6
3×3=9
3×4=12
3×5=15
3×6=18
3×7=21
3×8=24
3×9=27
3×10=30




Long Division Steps

Step by step solution :
Step-1 :
Set up the problem with long division bracket. Put dividend inside bracket and divisor on outside left.
   
379

Step-2 :
3 goes into 7 (2 times). Put a 2 in the next place of quotient and multiply 3 by 2 to get 6.
Subtract 6 from 7 to get remainder `(7-6=1)`.


 2 
379
6  = 3 × 2
 1 

Step-3 :
Now, bring down 9 from the dividend, to make 19
 2 
379
6  = 3 × 2
 19

Step-4 :
3 goes into 19 (6 times). Put a 6 in the next place of quotient and multiply 3 by 6 to get 18.
Subtract 18 from 19 to get remainder `(19-18=1)`.


 26
379
6  = 3 × 2
 19
18 = 3 × 6

2. Find `2596 / 4`

Solution:

Solution is
  649
42596
24   = 4 × 6
  19 
 16  = 4 × 4
  36
  36 = 4 × 9
  0

`:.` 2596 `-:` 4 = 649
4 table
4×1=4
4×2=8
4×3=12
4×4=16
4×5=20
4×6=24
4×7=28
4×8=32
4×9=36
4×10=40




Long Division Steps

Step by step solution :
Step-1 :
Set up the problem with long division bracket. Put dividend inside bracket and divisor on outside left.
     
42596

Step-2 :
4 does not go into 2, So we also use the next digit of the dividend.

4 goes into 25 (6 times). Put a 6 in the next place of quotient and multiply 4 by 6 to get 24.
Subtract 24 from 25 to get remainder `(25-24=1)`.


  6  
42596
24   = 4 × 6
  1  

Step-3 :
Now, bring down 9 from the dividend, to make 19
  6  
42596
24   = 4 × 6
  19 

Step-4 :
4 goes into 19 (4 times). Put a 4 in the next place of quotient and multiply 4 by 4 to get 16.
Subtract 16 from 19 to get remainder `(19-16=3)`.


  64 
42596
24   = 4 × 6
  19 
 16  = 4 × 4
  3 

Step-5 :
Now, bring down 6 from the dividend, to make 36
  64 
42596
24   = 4 × 6
  19 
 16  = 4 × 4
  36

Step-6 :
4 goes into 36 (9 times). Put a 9 in the next place of quotient and multiply 4 by 9 to get 36.
Subtract 36 from 36 to get remainder `(36-36=0)`.


  649
42596
24   = 4 × 6
  19 
 16  = 4 × 4
  36
  36 = 4 × 9
  0
