Solve 149div40=

$$149 \div 40 =$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{149}{40}=3.725$$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the 1^{st} digit 1 from dividend 149

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{40)}\phantom{1}\\40\overline{)149}\\\end{array}$$

Since 1 is less than 40, use the next digit 4 from dividend 149 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{40)}0\phantom{2}\\40\overline{)149}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 2^{nd} digit 4 from dividend 149

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{40)}0\phantom{3}\\40\overline{)149}\\\end{array}$$

Since 14 is less than 40, use the next digit 9 from dividend 149 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{40)}00\phantom{4}\\40\overline{)149}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 3^{rd} digit 9 from dividend 149

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{40)}00\phantom{5}\\40\overline{)149}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 40 to 149. We see that 3 \times 40 = 120 is the nearest. Now subtract 120 from 149 to get reminder 29. Add 3 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{40)}003\phantom{6}\\40\overline{)149}\\\phantom{40)}\underline{\phantom{}120\phantom{}}\\\phantom{40)9}29\\\end{array}$$

Since 29 is less than 40, stop the division. The reminder is 29. The topmost line 003 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 3.

$$\text{Quotient: }3 \text{Reminder: }29$$

Factor

$$\frac{149}{2 ^ {3} \cdot 5} = 3\frac{29}{40} = 3.725$$
