Solve 124div45

$$124 \div 45$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{124}{45}\approx 2.755555556$$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the 1^{st} digit 1 from dividend 124

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{45)}\phantom{1}\\45\overline{)124}\\\end{array}$$

Since 1 is less than 45, use the next digit 2 from dividend 124 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{45)}0\phantom{2}\\45\overline{)124}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 2^{nd} digit 2 from dividend 124

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{45)}0\phantom{3}\\45\overline{)124}\\\end{array}$$

Since 12 is less than 45, use the next digit 4 from dividend 124 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{45)}00\phantom{4}\\45\overline{)124}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 3^{rd} digit 4 from dividend 124

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{45)}00\phantom{5}\\45\overline{)124}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 45 to 124. We see that 2 \times 45 = 90 is the nearest. Now subtract 90 from 124 to get reminder 34. Add 2 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{45)}002\phantom{6}\\45\overline{)124}\\\phantom{45)}\underline{\phantom{9}90\phantom{}}\\\phantom{45)9}34\\\end{array}$$

Since 34 is less than 45, stop the division. The reminder is 34. The topmost line 002 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 2.

$$\text{Quotient: }2 \text{Reminder: }34$$

Factor

$$\frac{2 ^ {2} \cdot 31}{3 ^ {2} \cdot 5} = 2\frac{34}{45} = 2.7555555555555555$$
