Solve 7200/3600

$$\frac{ 7200 }{ 3600 }$$

Evaluate

$$2$$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the 1^{st} digit 7 from dividend 7200

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{3600)}\phantom{1}\\3600\overline{)7200}\\\end{array}$$

Since 7 is less than 3600, use the next digit 2 from dividend 7200 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{3600)}0\phantom{2}\\3600\overline{)7200}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 2^{nd} digit 2 from dividend 7200

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{3600)}0\phantom{3}\\3600\overline{)7200}\\\end{array}$$

Since 72 is less than 3600, use the next digit 0 from dividend 7200 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{3600)}00\phantom{4}\\3600\overline{)7200}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 3^{rd} digit 0 from dividend 7200

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{3600)}00\phantom{5}\\3600\overline{)7200}\\\end{array}$$

Since 720 is less than 3600, use the next digit 0 from dividend 7200 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{3600)}000\phantom{6}\\3600\overline{)7200}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 4^{th} digit 0 from dividend 7200

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{3600)}000\phantom{7}\\3600\overline{)7200}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 3600 to 7200. We see that 2 \times 3600 = 7200 is the nearest. Now subtract 7200 from 7200 to get reminder 0. Add 2 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{3600)}0002\phantom{8}\\3600\overline{)7200}\\\phantom{3600)}\underline{\phantom{}7200\phantom{}}\\\phantom{3600)9999}0\\\end{array}$$

Since 0 is less than 3600, stop the division. The reminder is 0. The topmost line 0002 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 2.

$$\text{Quotient: }2 \text{Reminder: }0$$

Factor

$$2$$
