Solve 179div24

$$179 \div 24$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{179}{24}\approx 7.458333333$$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the 1^{st} digit 1 from dividend 179

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{24)}\phantom{1}\\24\overline{)179}\\\end{array}$$

Since 1 is less than 24, use the next digit 7 from dividend 179 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{24)}0\phantom{2}\\24\overline{)179}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 2^{nd} digit 7 from dividend 179

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{24)}0\phantom{3}\\24\overline{)179}\\\end{array}$$

Since 17 is less than 24, use the next digit 9 from dividend 179 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{24)}00\phantom{4}\\24\overline{)179}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 3^{rd} digit 9 from dividend 179

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{24)}00\phantom{5}\\24\overline{)179}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 24 to 179. We see that 7 \times 24 = 168 is the nearest. Now subtract 168 from 179 to get reminder 11. Add 7 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{24)}007\phantom{6}\\24\overline{)179}\\\phantom{24)}\underline{\phantom{}168\phantom{}}\\\phantom{24)9}11\\\end{array}$$

Since 11 is less than 24, stop the division. The reminder is 11. The topmost line 007 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 7.

$$\text{Quotient: }7 \text{Reminder: }11$$

Factor

$$\frac{179}{2 ^ {3} \cdot 3} = 7\frac{11}{24} = 7.458333333333333$$
