Long Division Methods Method 1

We are going to try to solve 839 ÷ 27

Method (27 x 10 = 270)

839 ÷ 27 Method (27 x 10 = 270) 5 6 9

839 ÷ 27 Method (27 x 10 = 270)

839 ÷ 27 Method (27 x 10 = 270)

839 ÷ 27 Method (27 x 10 = 270) (27 x 1 = 27) 2

839 ÷ 27 Method (27 x 10 = 270) (27 x 1 = 27) = 31

839 ÷ 27 Method 1 = 3 1r 2 Or

Long Division Methods Method 2

We are going to try to solve 839 ÷ 27

Method 2 becomes 27 ) 8 3 9

839 ÷ 27 Method 2 27 ) x 10 = 270 Miles off!

839 ÷ 27 Method 2 27 ) x 10 = x 20 = 540 Getting better!

839 ÷ 27 Method 2 27 ) x 10 = x 20 = x 30 = 810 Much better!

839 ÷ 27 Method 2 27 ) x 30 = 810 Put the 810 underneath x 30 = 810

839 ÷ 27 Method 2 27 ) x 30 = x 1 =

839 ÷ 27 Method 2 27 ) x 30 = x 1 = =

839 ÷ 27 Method 2 27 ) Dont forget the remainder! r 2

839 ÷ 27 Method 2 = 3 1r 2 Or

Long Division Methods Method 3

We are going to try to solve 839 ÷ 27

Method 3 becomes 27 ) 8 3 9

839 ÷ 27 Method 3 27 ) Calculate 8 ÷ 27

839 ÷ 27 Method 3 27 ) We cant do it, so we write the answer 0 here 0

839 ÷ 27 Method 3 27 ) So we next look at 83 ÷ 27 0 Use you repeated subtraction here if this helps

839 ÷ 27 Method 3 27 ) x 27 = 54 3 x 27 = 81 3

839 ÷ 27 Method 3 27 ) x 27 = We need to take off 81 from the 83 to get the remainder

839 ÷ 27 Method 3 27 ) Drop the next digit next to the 2

839 ÷ 27 Method 3 27 ) Now we are going to do 29 ÷ 27 and put the answer here

839 ÷ 27 Method 3 27 ) Now we are going to do to get the remainder 2 7

839 ÷ 27 Method 3 27 ) r

839 ÷ 27 Method 3 = 3 1 r 2 or
