Solve 200/125

$$\frac { 200 } { 125 }$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{8}{5}=1.6$$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the 1^{st} digit 2 from dividend 200

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{125)}\phantom{1}\\125\overline{)200}\\\end{array}$$

Since 2 is less than 125, use the next digit 0 from dividend 200 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{125)}0\phantom{2}\\125\overline{)200}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 2^{nd} digit 0 from dividend 200

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{125)}0\phantom{3}\\125\overline{)200}\\\end{array}$$

Since 20 is less than 125, use the next digit 0 from dividend 200 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{125)}00\phantom{4}\\125\overline{)200}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 3^{rd} digit 0 from dividend 200

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{125)}00\phantom{5}\\125\overline{)200}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 125 to 200. We see that 1 \times 125 = 125 is the nearest. Now subtract 125 from 200 to get reminder 75. Add 1 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{125)}001\phantom{6}\\125\overline{)200}\\\phantom{125)}\underline{\phantom{}125\phantom{}}\\\phantom{125)9}75\\\end{array}$$

Since 75 is less than 125, stop the division. The reminder is 75. The topmost line 001 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 1.

$$\text{Quotient: }1 \text{Reminder: }75$$

Factor

$$\frac{2 ^ {3}}{5} = 1\frac{3}{5} = 1.6$$
