INTRODUCTION FOR DIVISION PROBLEMS
The operation of finding how many times one number, the divisor, is contained in a second, the dividend. The result is called the quotient, and if the divisor is not contained an integral number of times in the dividend, and number left over is called the remainder. Indicated either by the division sign, or by a stroke or bar, in which case the repression as a whole is called a fraction and the dividend and the divisor the numerator and denominator respectively. Understanding Matrix Division is always challenging for me but thanks to all math help websites to help me out.
DIVISION PROBLEMS EXAMPLE:
DIVISION PROBLEM 1:-
Solve 413 ÷ 7.
Set the divisor (7) before the bracket and place the dividend (3654) under it.
7)413(
Examine the first digit of the dividend (4). It is lesser than 7 so it can't be divided by 7 to produce a whole number. Next take the initial two digits of the dividend (41) and determine how many 7's it contains. In this case 41 has five sevens (5x7=35) but not six (6x7=42). Place the 5 after the division bracket.
7)413(5
Multiply 5 by 7 and place the result (35) below the 41 of the dividend.
7)413(5
35
Draw a line under 35 and subtract it from 41 (41-35=6). Bring down 3 from the 413 and place it to the right of the 6.
7)413(5
35
63
Divide 63 by 7 and place that answer after the division bracket to the right of the five.
7)413(59
35
63
Multiply 9 of the quotient by the divisor (7) to get 63 and place this below the 63 under the dividend. Subtract 63 from 63 to give an answer of 0. This indicates that there is not anything left over and 7 can be evenly divided into 413 to produce a quotient of 59.
