\begin{array}{l}\phantom{100)}\phantom{1}\\100\overline{)2875}\\\end{array}
Use the 1^{st} digit 2 from dividend 2875
\begin{array}{l}\phantom{100)}0\phantom{2}\\100\overline{)2875}\\\end{array}
Since 2 is less than 100, use the next digit 8 from dividend 2875 and add 0 to the quotient
\begin{array}{l}\phantom{100)}0\phantom{3}\\100\overline{)2875}\\\end{array}
Use the 2^{nd} digit 8 from dividend 2875
\begin{array}{l}\phantom{100)}00\phantom{4}\\100\overline{)2875}\\\end{array}
Since 28 is less than 100, use the next digit 7 from dividend 2875 and add 0 to the quotient
\begin{array}{l}\phantom{100)}00\phantom{5}\\100\overline{)2875}\\\end{array}
Use the 3^{rd} digit 7 from dividend 2875
\begin{array}{l}\phantom{100)}002\phantom{6}\\100\overline{)2875}\\\phantom{100)}\underline{\phantom{}200\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{100)9}87\\\end{array}
Find closest multiple of 100 to 287. We see that 2 \times 100 = 200 is the nearest. Now subtract 200 from 287 to get reminder 87. Add 2 to quotient.
\begin{array}{l}\phantom{100)}002\phantom{7}\\100\overline{)2875}\\\phantom{100)}\underline{\phantom{}200\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{100)9}875\\\end{array}
Use the 4^{th} digit 5 from dividend 2875
\begin{array}{l}\phantom{100)}0028\phantom{8}\\100\overline{)2875}\\\phantom{100)}\underline{\phantom{}200\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{100)9}875\\\phantom{100)}\underline{\phantom{9}800\phantom{}}\\\phantom{100)99}75\\\end{array}
Find closest multiple of 100 to 875. We see that 8 \times 100 = 800 is the nearest. Now subtract 800 from 875 to get reminder 75. Add 8 to quotient.
\text{Quotient: }28 \text{Reminder: }75
Since 75 is less than 100, stop the division. The reminder is 75. The topmost line 0028 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 28.
