P. 2

  Write 8 in the quotient just above the dividend as shown in the solution.
              Write 184 below 189 and subtract.
              189 – 184 = 5
         Step 2:


              Bring down the next digit, i.e. 0 from the dividend to make 50.
              Now, 23 x 2 = 46 and 23 x 3 = 69
              46<50 while 69>50.
              So, we will take 46.
              Write 2 in the quotient just next to 8 as shown in the solution.
              Write 36 below 50 and subtract.
              50 – 46 = 4.

        Step 3:

              Bring down the next digit, i.e. 9 from the dividend to make 49.
              Now, 23 x 2 = 46 and 23 x 3 = 69
              46<49 while 69>49.
              So, we will take 46.
              Write 2 in the quotient just next to 2 as shown in the solution.
              Write 46 below 49 and subtract.
              49 – 46 = 3.

        Step 4:

              Bring down the next digit, i.e. 8 from the dividend to make 38.
              Now, 23 x 1 = 23 and 23 x 2 = 46
              23<38 while 46>38.
              So, we will take 23.
              Write 1 in the quotient just next to 2 as shown in the solution.
              Write 23 below 38 and subtract.
              38 – 23 = 15.

        Step 5:


              Bring down the next digit, i.e. 5 from the dividend to make 155.
              Now, 23 x 6 = 138 and 23 x 7 = 161
              138<155 while 161>155.
              So, we will take 138.
              Write 6 in the quotient just next to 1 as shown in the solution.
              Write 138 below 155 and subtract.
              155 – 138 = 17.

        Step 6:

              Bring down the next digit, i.e. 2 from the dividend to make 172.
              Now, 23 x 7 = 161 and 23 x 8 = 184
              161<172 while 184>172.
              So, we will take 161.
              Write 7 in the quotient just next to 6 as shown in the solution.
              Write 161 below 172 and subtract.
