Exercise #1

2306

Video Solution

Step-by-Step Solution

To solve the problem of dividing 306 by 2 using long division, we will follow these steps:

  • Step 1: Set up the expression as 306÷2 306 \div 2 .
  • Step 2: Begin the division with the hundreds digit.
  • Step 3: Move to the tens digit and then finally to the units digit.

Let's proceed with these steps:

Step 1: Start with the hundreds place. Divide 3 (from 306) by 2. The quotient is 1, and we write it atop. Multiply 1 by 2, which gives 2, and subtract it from 3, leaving a remainder of 1. Bring down the next digit (0).

Step 2: Divide 10 by 2. The quotient is 5. Write 5 atop the division bar. Multiply 5 by 2, resulting in 10. Subtract 10 from 10, leaving no remainder. Bring down the next digit (6).

Step 3: Divide 6 by 2. The quotient is 3. Write 3 directly next to the previous quotient digits (1 and 5) on top. Multiply 3 by 2, which gives 6. Subtract this from 6, which yields 0, showing no remainder.

Thus, by performing long division, we find that:

The solution to the division 306÷2 306 \div 2 is 153\mathbf{153}.

Exercise #2

3216

Video Solution

Step-by-Step Solution

To solve this problem, we'll perform long division of 216 by 3:

  • Step 1: Divide the hundreds digit. 2 (from 216) divided by 3 is 0, so we write 0 as the quotient.
  • Step 2: Since 2 is less than 3, we consider the next digit. Thus, we take the first two digits, 21. 21 divided by 3 equals 7.
  • Step 3: Write 7 in the quotient beside the 0. The quotient now is 07.
  • Step 4: Now, consider the last digit: Bring down the 6. Divide 16 by 3 to get 5. Write 6 in the remainder position.
  • Step 5: Since 6 is divisible by 3 evenly, divide it to get 2. Thus, the final digit for our quotient is 2.
  • Step 6: Combining these, the full quotient becomes 72.

Therefore, the solution to the division 2163 \frac{216}{3} is 72 72 .

Step-by-Step Solution

To solve this problem, we will perform long division of 603 by 3. Below are the steps explained in detail:

  • Step 1: Start with the leftmost digit of the dividend (603). This is 6. Divide 6 by 3 to get 2. So, we place 2 above the line, indicating the first digit of the quotient.
  • Step 2: Multiply 2 (the quotient digit we've obtained) by 3 (the divisor) to get 6. Subtract this 6 from the first digit of 603, which gives us 0.
  • Step 3: Bring down the next digit of the dividend, which is 0. The result is now considered as 0.
  • Step 4: Divide this 0 by 3, which gives 0 for the next digit in the quotient. Place this 0 alongside the 2 above the line.
  • Step 5: Bring down the final digit of the dividend, which is 3.
  • Step 6: Divide the 3 by 3 to get 1. Place 1 in the quotient line, forming the last digit.
  • Step 7: Multiply 1 by 3 to get 3, subtract this 3 from the digit brought down (which is also 3), resulting in 0.

Thus, combining all digits in the quotient gives us 201.

Therefore, the solution to this problem is 201 201 .

Step-by-Step Solution

To solve this problem, we'll perform long division of 208 by 4:

  • Step 1: Begin by setting up the division. Write 208 (dividend) under the division bar and 4 (divisor) on the outside.
  • Step 2: Determine how many times 4 can fit into the first digit of 208, which is 2. Since 4 does not go into 2, we consider the first two digits, 20.
  • Step 3: 4 fits into 20 exactly 5 times (since 4 × 5 = 20). Write 5 above the division bar above the zero in 20.
  • Step 4: Multiply 5 by 4 to get 20, and subtract 20 from 20, leaving a remainder of 0. Bring down the next digit, which is 8.
  • Step 5: Now, determine how many times 4 goes into 8. It goes exactly 2 times (since 4 × 2 = 8). Write 2 above the division bar, next to 5.
  • Step 6: Multiply 2 by 4 to get 8, subtract from 8 to leave a remainder of 0.

The division is complete, and we find that 208 divided by 4 equals 52 52 .

Therefore, the correct answer is 52 52 .
