Solve 15120div120

$$15120 \div 120$$

Evaluate

$$126$$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the 1^{st} digit 1 from dividend 15120

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{120)}\phantom{1}\\120\overline{)15120}\\\end{array}$$

Since 1 is less than 120, use the next digit 5 from dividend 15120 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{120)}0\phantom{2}\\120\overline{)15120}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 2^{nd} digit 5 from dividend 15120

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{120)}0\phantom{3}\\120\overline{)15120}\\\end{array}$$

Since 15 is less than 120, use the next digit 1 from dividend 15120 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{120)}00\phantom{4}\\120\overline{)15120}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 3^{rd} digit 1 from dividend 15120

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{120)}00\phantom{5}\\120\overline{)15120}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 120 to 151. We see that 1 \times 120 = 120 is the nearest. Now subtract 120 from 151 to get reminder 31. Add 1 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{120)}001\phantom{6}\\120\overline{)15120}\\\phantom{120)}\underline{\phantom{}120\phantom{99}}\\\phantom{120)9}31\\\end{array}$$

Use the 4^{th} digit 2 from dividend 15120

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{120)}001\phantom{7}\\120\overline{)15120}\\\phantom{120)}\underline{\phantom{}120\phantom{99}}\\\phantom{120)9}312\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 120 to 312. We see that 2 \times 120 = 240 is the nearest. Now subtract 240 from 312 to get reminder 72. Add 2 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{120)}0012\phantom{8}\\120\overline{)15120}\\\phantom{120)}\underline{\phantom{}120\phantom{99}}\\\phantom{120)9}312\\\phantom{120)}\underline{\phantom{9}240\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{120)99}72\\\end{array}$$

Use the 5^{th} digit 0 from dividend 15120

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{120)}0012\phantom{9}\\120\overline{)15120}\\\phantom{120)}\underline{\phantom{}120\phantom{99}}\\\phantom{120)9}312\\\phantom{120)}\underline{\phantom{9}240\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{120)99}720\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 120 to 720. We see that 6 \times 120 = 720 is the nearest. Now subtract 720 from 720 to get reminder 0. Add 6 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{120)}00126\phantom{10}\\120\overline{)15120}\\\phantom{120)}\underline{\phantom{}120\phantom{99}}\\\phantom{120)9}312\\\phantom{120)}\underline{\phantom{9}240\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{120)99}720\\\phantom{120)}\underline{\phantom{99}720\phantom{}}\\\phantom{120)99999}0\\\end{array}$$

Since 0 is less than 120, stop the division. The reminder is 0. The topmost line 00126 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 126.

$$\text{Quotient: }126 \text{Reminder: }0$$

Factor

$$2\times 3^{2}\times 7$$
