Learning Objective

At the end of the lesson, you will confidently perform long division with multi-digit numbers and understand each step in the process.

What do you already know about dividing large numbers?

What is Long Division?

Long division is a method for dividing large numbers into smaller, more manageable parts. It involves division, multiplication, and subtraction steps.

Step 1: Divide

Determine how many times the divisor fits into the first part of the dividend. Write the result above the dividend.

Step 2: Multiply

Multiply the result by the divisor and write it under the part of the dividend you used.

Step 3: Subtract

Subtract the product from the part of the dividend. Bring down the next digit.

Step 4: Repeat or Finish

Repeat the process with the new number. Continue until no digits are left to bring down.

Interactive Practice

Solve 652 divided by 4 using long division. Follow each step carefully.

Check Your Work

Verify your answer by multiplying the quotient by the divisor. Add the remainder, if any.
