Solve 154div58

$$154 \div 58$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{77}{29}\approx 2.655172414$$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the 1^{st} digit 1 from dividend 154

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{58)}\phantom{1}\\58\overline{)154}\\\end{array}$$

Since 1 is less than 58, use the next digit 5 from dividend 154 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{58)}0\phantom{2}\\58\overline{)154}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 2^{nd} digit 5 from dividend 154

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{58)}0\phantom{3}\\58\overline{)154}\\\end{array}$$

Since 15 is less than 58, use the next digit 4 from dividend 154 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{58)}00\phantom{4}\\58\overline{)154}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 3^{rd} digit 4 from dividend 154

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{58)}00\phantom{5}\\58\overline{)154}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 58 to 154. We see that 2 \times 58 = 116 is the nearest. Now subtract 116 from 154 to get reminder 38. Add 2 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{58)}002\phantom{6}\\58\overline{)154}\\\phantom{58)}\underline{\phantom{}116\phantom{}}\\\phantom{58)9}38\\\end{array}$$

Since 38 is less than 58, stop the division. The reminder is 38. The topmost line 002 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 2.

$$\text{Quotient: }2 \text{Reminder: }38$$

Factor

$$\frac{7 \cdot 11}{29} = 2\frac{19}{29} = 2.6551724137931036$$
