P. 3
Step 1: Arrange the problem in long division form. Start with the digit at
the highest place value in the dividend. (Look what numbers have to be
divided).
Step 2: Multiply the divisor with the quotient to get the number equal to
or near to the dividend. Write the product of quotient and divisor under
the dividend‟s digit.
Step 3: Subtract the product from the digit in the dividend.
Step 4: Bring down the next digit on the right, and combine it with
previous remainder, if any.
Step 5: Repeat from step 2.
Step 6: At the end, the number on top is the quotient (q), and any
number left at the bottom is the remainder(r).
