Solve 49/35

$$\frac{ 49 }{ 35 }$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{7}{5}=1.4$$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the 1^{st} digit 4 from dividend 49

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{35)}\phantom{1}\\35\overline{)49}\\\end{array}$$

Since 4 is less than 35, use the next digit 9 from dividend 49 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{35)}0\phantom{2}\\35\overline{)49}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 2^{nd} digit 9 from dividend 49

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{35)}0\phantom{3}\\35\overline{)49}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 35 to 49. We see that 1 \times 35 = 35 is the nearest. Now subtract 35 from 49 to get reminder 14. Add 1 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{35)}01\phantom{4}\\35\overline{)49}\\\phantom{35)}\underline{\phantom{}35\phantom{}}\\\phantom{35)}14\\\end{array}$$

Since 14 is less than 35, stop the division. The reminder is 14. The topmost line 01 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 1.

$$\text{Quotient: }1 \text{Reminder: }14$$

Factor

$$\frac{7}{5} = 1\frac{2}{5} = 1.4$$
