Step-by-Step Long Division Tutorial
To solve a problem like 144 ÷ 4, follow these steps:
- Divide: 4 goes into 14 three times (3). Write 3 on top.
- Multiply: 3 × 4 = 12. Write 12 under the 14.
- Subtract: 14 - 12 = 2.
- Bring Down: Bring down the 4. Now you have 24.
- Repeat: 4 goes into 24 six times (6). Write 6 on top.
- Finish: No more digits to bring down. Answer is 36.
