Lesson Seventy-one: Three Digit Divisors


Three digit divisors aren't that difficult to work with, they just take some time to get used to. Here's another example:


		  13 r255	1. Divide (450/327=1)
	     +--------		2. Multiply (327 x 1 = 327)
	327  |  4506		3. Subtract (450-327=123)
		327		4. Bring down the 6
	      -------		5. Divide (1236/327=3)
	        1236		6. Multiply (327x3=981)
	         981		7. Subtract (1236-981=255)
	      -------		8. Remainder 255
	         255
