Solve 1234div68=

$$1234 \div 68 =$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{617}{34}\approx 18.147058824$$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the 1^{st} digit 1 from dividend 1234

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{68)}\phantom{1}\\68\overline{)1234}\\\end{array}$$

Since 1 is less than 68, use the next digit 2 from dividend 1234 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{68)}0\phantom{2}\\68\overline{)1234}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 2^{nd} digit 2 from dividend 1234

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{68)}0\phantom{3}\\68\overline{)1234}\\\end{array}$$

Since 12 is less than 68, use the next digit 3 from dividend 1234 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{68)}00\phantom{4}\\68\overline{)1234}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 3^{rd} digit 3 from dividend 1234

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{68)}00\phantom{5}\\68\overline{)1234}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 68 to 123. We see that 1 \times 68 = 68 is the nearest. Now subtract 68 from 123 to get reminder 55. Add 1 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{68)}001\phantom{6}\\68\overline{)1234}\\\phantom{68)}\underline{\phantom{9}68\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{68)9}55\\\end{array}$$

Use the 4^{th} digit 4 from dividend 1234

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{68)}001\phantom{7}\\68\overline{)1234}\\\phantom{68)}\underline{\phantom{9}68\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{68)9}554\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 68 to 554. We see that 8 \times 68 = 544 is the nearest. Now subtract 544 from 554 to get reminder 10. Add 8 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{68)}0018\phantom{8}\\68\overline{)1234}\\\phantom{68)}\underline{\phantom{9}68\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{68)9}554\\\phantom{68)}\underline{\phantom{9}544\phantom{}}\\\phantom{68)99}10\\\end{array}$$

Since 10 is less than 68, stop the division. The reminder is 10. The topmost line 0018 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 18.

$$\text{Quotient: }18 \text{Reminder: }10$$

Factor

$$\frac{617}{2 \cdot 17} = 18\frac{5}{34} = 18.147058823529413$$
