Mastering the Basics of Long Division

This video tutorial guides viewers through the process of long division using the example of 1,472 divided by 6. It assumes prior knowledge of basic multiplication and division facts. The tutorial is divided into cycles, each focusing on a part of the dividend, and demonstrates how to set up the problem, find the focus, divide, multiply, and subtract to find the quotient and remainder. The video encourages viewers to practice alongside and provides links to additional resources for further learning.

What is the first step in setting up a long division problem?

• Subtract the divisor from the dividend

• Draw the rooftop symbol and place the dividend underneath

• Write the divisor on the right
