Solve 680/50

$$\frac { 680 } { 50 }$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{68}{5}=13.6$$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the 1^{st} digit 6 from dividend 680

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{50)}\phantom{1}\\50\overline{)680}\\\end{array}$$

Since 6 is less than 50, use the next digit 8 from dividend 680 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{50)}0\phantom{2}\\50\overline{)680}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 2^{nd} digit 8 from dividend 680

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{50)}0\phantom{3}\\50\overline{)680}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 50 to 68. We see that 1 \times 50 = 50 is the nearest. Now subtract 50 from 68 to get reminder 18. Add 1 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{50)}01\phantom{4}\\50\overline{)680}\\\phantom{50)}\underline{\phantom{}50\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{50)}18\\\end{array}$$

Use the 3^{rd} digit 0 from dividend 680

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{50)}01\phantom{5}\\50\overline{)680}\\\phantom{50)}\underline{\phantom{}50\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{50)}180\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 50 to 180. We see that 3 \times 50 = 150 is the nearest. Now subtract 150 from 180 to get reminder 30. Add 3 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{50)}013\phantom{6}\\50\overline{)680}\\\phantom{50)}\underline{\phantom{}50\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{50)}180\\\phantom{50)}\underline{\phantom{}150\phantom{}}\\\phantom{50)9}30\\\end{array}$$

Since 30 is less than 50, stop the division. The reminder is 30. The topmost line 013 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 13.

$$\text{Quotient: }13 \text{Reminder: }30$$

Factor

$$\frac{2 ^ {2} \cdot 17}{5} = 13\frac{3}{5} = 13.6$$
