In long division, what is the first step when dividing the divisor into the dividend?

• Divide the entire divisor into the dividend

• Subtract the divisor from the dividend

• Divide the first term of the divisor into the first term of the dividend

• Multiply the divisor by the dividend

Why is it important to multiply both terms when performing long division?
