$$150000 \div 279$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{50000}{93}\approx 537.634408602$$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the 1^{st} digit 1 from dividend 150000

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{279)}\phantom{1}\\279\overline{)150000}\\\end{array}$$

Since 1 is less than 279, use the next digit 5 from dividend 150000 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{279)}0\phantom{2}\\279\overline{)150000}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 2^{nd} digit 5 from dividend 150000

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{279)}0\phantom{3}\\279\overline{)150000}\\\end{array}$$

Since 15 is less than 279, use the next digit 0 from dividend 150000 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{279)}00\phantom{4}\\279\overline{)150000}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 3^{rd} digit 0 from dividend 150000

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{279)}00\phantom{5}\\279\overline{)150000}\\\end{array}$$

Since 150 is less than 279, use the next digit 0 from dividend 150000 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{279)}000\phantom{6}\\279\overline{)150000}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 4^{th} digit 0 from dividend 150000

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{279)}000\phantom{7}\\279\overline{)150000}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 279 to 1500. We see that 5 \times 279 = 1395 is the nearest. Now subtract 1395 from 1500 to get reminder 105. Add 5 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{279)}0005\phantom{8}\\279\overline{)150000}\\\phantom{279)}\underline{\phantom{}1395\phantom{99}}\\\phantom{279)9}105\\\end{array}$$

Use the 5^{th} digit 0 from dividend 150000

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{279)}0005\phantom{9}\\279\overline{)150000}\\\phantom{279)}\underline{\phantom{}1395\phantom{99}}\\\phantom{279)9}1050\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 279 to 1050. We see that 3 \times 279 = 837 is the nearest. Now subtract 837 from 1050 to get reminder 213. Add 3 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{279)}00053\phantom{10}\\279\overline{)150000}\\\phantom{279)}\underline{\phantom{}1395\phantom{99}}\\\phantom{279)9}1050\\\phantom{279)}\underline{\phantom{99}837\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{279)99}213\\\end{array}$$

Use the 6^{th} digit 0 from dividend 150000

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{279)}00053\phantom{11}\\279\overline{)150000}\\\phantom{279)}\underline{\phantom{}1395\phantom{99}}\\\phantom{279)9}1050\\\phantom{279)}\underline{\phantom{99}837\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{279)99}2130\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 279 to 2130. We see that 7 \times 279 = 1953 is the nearest. Now subtract 1953 from 2130 to get reminder 177. Add 7 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{279)}000537\phantom{12}\\279\overline{)150000}\\\phantom{279)}\underline{\phantom{}1395\phantom{99}}\\\phantom{279)9}1050\\\phantom{279)}\underline{\phantom{99}837\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{279)99}2130\\\phantom{279)}\underline{\phantom{99}1953\phantom{}}\\\phantom{279)999}177\\\end{array}$$

Since 177 is less than 279, stop the division. The reminder is 177. The topmost line 000537 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 537.

$$\text{Quotient: }537 \text{Reminder: }177$$

Factor

$$\frac{2 ^ {4} \cdot 5 ^ {5}}{3 \cdot 31} = 537\frac{59}{93} = 537.6344086021505$$
