Solve 220/32

$$\frac { 220 } { 32 }$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{55}{8}=6.875$$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the 1^{st} digit 2 from dividend 220

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{32)}\phantom{1}\\32\overline{)220}\\\end{array}$$

Since 2 is less than 32, use the next digit 2 from dividend 220 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{32)}0\phantom{2}\\32\overline{)220}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 2^{nd} digit 2 from dividend 220

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{32)}0\phantom{3}\\32\overline{)220}\\\end{array}$$

Since 22 is less than 32, use the next digit 0 from dividend 220 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{32)}00\phantom{4}\\32\overline{)220}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 3^{rd} digit 0 from dividend 220

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{32)}00\phantom{5}\\32\overline{)220}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 32 to 220. We see that 6 \times 32 = 192 is the nearest. Now subtract 192 from 220 to get reminder 28. Add 6 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{32)}006\phantom{6}\\32\overline{)220}\\\phantom{32)}\underline{\phantom{}192\phantom{}}\\\phantom{32)9}28\\\end{array}$$

Since 28 is less than 32, stop the division. The reminder is 28. The topmost line 006 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 6.

$$\text{Quotient: }6 \text{Reminder: }28$$

Factor

$$\frac{5 \cdot 11}{2 ^ {3}} = 6\frac{7}{8} = 6.875$$
