Solve 124/35

$$\frac{ 124 }{ 35 }$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{124}{35}\approx 3.542857143$$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the 1^{st} digit 1 from dividend 124

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{35)}\phantom{1}\\35\overline{)124}\\\end{array}$$

Since 1 is less than 35, use the next digit 2 from dividend 124 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{35)}0\phantom{2}\\35\overline{)124}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 2^{nd} digit 2 from dividend 124

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{35)}0\phantom{3}\\35\overline{)124}\\\end{array}$$

Since 12 is less than 35, use the next digit 4 from dividend 124 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{35)}00\phantom{4}\\35\overline{)124}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 3^{rd} digit 4 from dividend 124

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{35)}00\phantom{5}\\35\overline{)124}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 35 to 124. We see that 3 \times 35 = 105 is the nearest. Now subtract 105 from 124 to get reminder 19. Add 3 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{35)}003\phantom{6}\\35\overline{)124}\\\phantom{35)}\underline{\phantom{}105\phantom{}}\\\phantom{35)9}19\\\end{array}$$

Since 19 is less than 35, stop the division. The reminder is 19. The topmost line 003 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 3.

$$\text{Quotient: }3 \text{Reminder: }19$$

Factor

$$\frac{2 ^ {2} \cdot 31}{5 \cdot 7} = 3\frac{19}{35} = 3.5428571428571427$$
