Solve 84/28

$$\frac{ 84 }{ 28 }$$

Evaluate

$$3$$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the 1^{st} digit 8 from dividend 84

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{28)}\phantom{1}\\28\overline{)84}\\\end{array}$$

Since 8 is less than 28, use the next digit 4 from dividend 84 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{28)}0\phantom{2}\\28\overline{)84}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 2^{nd} digit 4 from dividend 84

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{28)}0\phantom{3}\\28\overline{)84}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 28 to 84. We see that 3 \times 28 = 84 is the nearest. Now subtract 84 from 84 to get reminder 0. Add 3 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{28)}03\phantom{4}\\28\overline{)84}\\\phantom{28)}\underline{\phantom{}84\phantom{}}\\\phantom{28)99}0\\\end{array}$$

Since 0 is less than 28, stop the division. The reminder is 0. The topmost line 03 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

$$3$$
