Solve 1803:55=

$$1803 : 55 =$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{1803}{55}\approx 32.781818182$$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the 1^{st} digit 1 from dividend 1803

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{55)}\phantom{1}\\55\overline{)1803}\\\end{array}$$

Since 1 is less than 55, use the next digit 8 from dividend 1803 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{55)}0\phantom{2}\\55\overline{)1803}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 2^{nd} digit 8 from dividend 1803

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{55)}0\phantom{3}\\55\overline{)1803}\\\end{array}$$

Since 18 is less than 55, use the next digit 0 from dividend 1803 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{55)}00\phantom{4}\\55\overline{)1803}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 3^{rd} digit 0 from dividend 1803

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{55)}00\phantom{5}\\55\overline{)1803}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 55 to 180. We see that 3 \times 55 = 165 is the nearest. Now subtract 165 from 180 to get reminder 15. Add 3 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{55)}003\phantom{6}\\55\overline{)1803}\\\phantom{55)}\underline{\phantom{}165\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{55)9}15\\\end{array}$$

Use the 4^{th} digit 3 from dividend 1803

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{55)}003\phantom{7}\\55\overline{)1803}\\\phantom{55)}\underline{\phantom{}165\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{55)9}153\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 55 to 153. We see that 2 \times 55 = 110 is the nearest. Now subtract 110 from 153 to get reminder 43. Add 2 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{55)}0032\phantom{8}\\55\overline{)1803}\\\phantom{55)}\underline{\phantom{}165\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{55)9}153\\\phantom{55)}\underline{\phantom{9}110\phantom{}}\\\phantom{55)99}43\\\end{array}$$

Since 43 is less than 55, stop the division. The reminder is 43. The topmost line 0032 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 32.

$$\text{Quotient: }32 \text{Reminder: }43$$

Factor

$$\frac{3 \cdot 601}{5 \cdot 11} = 32\frac{43}{55} = 32.78181818181818$$
