What is long division?

Long division is a method used in mathematics to divide large numbers by smaller numbers. It involves breaking down the division process into smaller, easier steps, typically using a series of subtractions, multiplications, and shifts to determine the quotient and remainder when dividing one number by another.

How do you set up a long division problem?

To set up a long division problem, you first write the divisor (the number you're dividing by) on the left side of a division symbol. Then, you place the dividend (the number you're dividing) under the symbol, aligning the digits with the corresponding place values. Next, you start dividing the leftmost digit of the dividend by the divisor, writing the quotient on top. Multiply the quotient by the divisor and write the result below the dividend. Subtract to find the remainder, then bring down the next digit of the dividend to continue dividing until you reach the end of the number.

What is the dividend in a long division problem?

The dividend in a long division problem is the number that is being divided by another number, known as the divisor, to obtain a quotient. It is the larger number that is being divided.

What is the divisor in a long division problem?

In a long division problem, the divisor is the number by which the dividend (the number being divided) is divided by to get the quotient (the result of the division). It is the number outside the division symbol that helps determine how many times the divisor can be subtracted from the dividend.

What is the quotient in long division?

The quotient in long division is the result of dividing the dividend by the divisor, which represents the number of times the divisor can be subtracted from the dividend without a remainder.

How do you handle remainders in long division?

To handle remainders in long division, we typically write the remainder as a fraction over the divisor. This accounts for the remainder in the division process. For example, if you have a remainder of 3 when dividing by 7, you would write the answer as the quotient plus the fraction 3/7. This allows you to express the division more precisely and accurately account for any leftover amount after dividing.

How do you check your answer in long division?

To check your answer in long division, you can multiply the quotient by the divisor and add the remainder. The result should be equal to the dividend. If it matches, then your answer is correct. Additionally, you can also perform the division operation in reverse by multiplying the quotient by the divisor, then adding the remainder, to ensure it equals the dividend.

How do you solve long division problems with multi-digit dividends?

To solve long division problems with multi-digit dividends, you start by dividing the leftmost digits of the dividend by the divisor. Write the quotient above the dividend and multiply the divisor by the quotient. Subtract this product from the leftmost digits of the dividend to get a remainder. Bring down the next digit of the dividend to the remainder and continue the process until you have divided all the digits. Repeat the steps until you have no more digits to bring down, and the remainder is less than the divisor. The quotient obtained from each step will be the final answer.

How do you solve long division problems with multi-digit divisors?

To solve long division problems with multi-digit divisors, you first divide the leftmost digit of the dividend by the divisor. Then multiply the divisor by the quotient obtained and subtract this from the portion of the dividend you just used. Bring down the next digit of the dividend, repeat the process, and continue until you have no more digits to bring down. Keep track of the quotients obtained at each step and combine them to get the final answer.

How do you solve long division problems with decimals?

To solve long division problems with decimals, follow the same steps as you would with whole numbers. Place the decimal point in the quotient directly above the decimal point in the dividend and divide as usual. If needed, add zeros to the right of the decimal point to extend the divisor. Then, continue dividing and bringing down digits until you reach the desired level of precision in the quotient.
