  Let’s solve one more example when there is 0 in the Dividend:
                       60 ÷ 3 = ?

                       Here we will show you step-by-step with detailed

                       explanation how to calculate 60 divided by 3 using long

                       division.

                       Before you continue, note that in the problem 60 divided by
                       3, the numbers are defined as follows:


                       60 = dividend
                       3 = divisor


                       Step 1:

                       Start by setting it up with the divisor 3 on the left side and

                       the dividend 60 on the right side like this:









                       Step 2:
                       The divisor (3) goes into the first digit of the dividend (6), 2

                       time(s). Therefore, put 2 on top:













                       Step 3:
                       Multiply the divisor by the result in the previous step (3 x 2

                       = 6) and write that answer below the dividend.
