What is long division?

Back

Long division is a method for dividing two numbers, where the divisor is repeatedly subtracted from the dividend, and the process is organized in a structured way to find the quotient.

What does it mean to divide without a remainder?

Back

Dividing without a remainder means that the dividend is evenly divisible by the divisor, resulting in a whole number quotient.

Front

How do you set up a long division problem?

Back

To set up a long division problem, write the dividend under the long division symbol and the divisor outside it. Then, determine how many times the divisor fits into the leading digits of the dividend.

Front

What is the quotient in a division problem?

Back

The quotient is the result of the division, representing how many times the divisor can fit into the dividend.

Front

What is the dividend in a division problem?

Back

The dividend is the number that is being divided by another number (the divisor).

Front

What is the divisor in a division problem?

Back

The divisor is the number by which the dividend is divided.

Front

How do you check if a division is correct?

Back

To check if a division is correct, multiply the quotient by the divisor. If the result equals the dividend, the division is correct.

Front

What is the first step in long division?

Back

The first step in long division is to determine how many times the divisor can fit into the leading digits of the dividend.

Front

What do you do after finding the first digit of the quotient in long division?

Back

After finding the first digit of the quotient, multiply the divisor by that digit, subtract the result from the leading digits of the dividend, and bring down the next digit.

Front

What is the purpose of bringing down a digit in long division?

Back

Bringing down a digit allows you to create a new number that can be divided by the divisor, continuing the long division process.
