Solve 375/125

$$\frac{ 375 }{ 125 }$$

Evaluate

$$3$$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the 1^{st} digit 3 from dividend 375

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{125)}\phantom{1}\\125\overline{)375}\\\end{array}$$

Since 3 is less than 125, use the next digit 7 from dividend 375 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{125)}0\phantom{2}\\125\overline{)375}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 2^{nd} digit 7 from dividend 375

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{125)}0\phantom{3}\\125\overline{)375}\\\end{array}$$

Since 37 is less than 125, use the next digit 5 from dividend 375 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{125)}00\phantom{4}\\125\overline{)375}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 3^{rd} digit 5 from dividend 375

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{125)}00\phantom{5}\\125\overline{)375}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 125 to 375. We see that 3 \times 125 = 375 is the nearest. Now subtract 375 from 375 to get reminder 0. Add 3 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{125)}003\phantom{6}\\125\overline{)375}\\\phantom{125)}\underline{\phantom{}375\phantom{}}\\\phantom{125)999}0\\\end{array}$$

Since 0 is less than 125, stop the division. The reminder is 0. The topmost line 003 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 3.

$$\text{Quotient: }3 \text{Reminder: }0$$

Factor

$$3$$
