Lesson Fifty-five: Division with Remainders


Here's a simple division problem for you to consider.

            64 
     	 +----                 
       5 | 320                 1. Divide 5 into 32 
           30		       2. Multiply 5 x 6 = 30
          ----                 3. Subract 32 - 30 = 2
            20                 4. Bring down the 0
            20                 5. Divide 5 into 20
           ----                6. Multiply 5 x 4 = 20
             0                 7. Subtract 20 - 20 = 0

Here's another example for you:

            48 
     	 +----                 
       6 | 288                 1. Divide 6 into 28 
           24		       2. Multiply 6 x 4 = 24
          ----                 3. Subract 28 - 24 = 4
            48                 4. Bring down the 8
            48                 5. Divide 6 into 48
           ----                6. Multiply 6 x 8 = 48
             0                 7. Subtract 48 - 48 = 0

On the next page you will be presented with division problems in the form:


       521 / 4

       You can convert these to this form:

          +------
