Solve 43/24

$$\frac { 43 } { 24 }$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{43}{24}\approx 1.791666667$$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the 1^{st} digit 4 from dividend 43

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{24)}\phantom{1}\\24\overline{)43}\\\end{array}$$

Since 4 is less than 24, use the next digit 3 from dividend 43 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{24)}0\phantom{2}\\24\overline{)43}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 2^{nd} digit 3 from dividend 43

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{24)}0\phantom{3}\\24\overline{)43}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 24 to 43. We see that 1 \times 24 = 24 is the nearest. Now subtract 24 from 43 to get reminder 19. Add 1 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{24)}01\phantom{4}\\24\overline{)43}\\\phantom{24)}\underline{\phantom{}24\phantom{}}\\\phantom{24)}19\\\end{array}$$

Since 19 is less than 24, stop the division. The reminder is 19. The topmost line 01 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 1.

$$\text{Quotient: }1 \text{Reminder: }19$$

Factor

$$\frac{43}{2 ^ {3} \cdot 3} = 1\frac{19}{24} = 1.7916666666666667$$
