Solve 2160div120

$$2160 \div 120$$

Evaluate

$$18$$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the 1^{st} digit 2 from dividend 2160

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{120)}\phantom{1}\\120\overline{)2160}\\\end{array}$$

Since 2 is less than 120, use the next digit 1 from dividend 2160 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{120)}0\phantom{2}\\120\overline{)2160}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 2^{nd} digit 1 from dividend 2160

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{120)}0\phantom{3}\\120\overline{)2160}\\\end{array}$$

Since 21 is less than 120, use the next digit 6 from dividend 2160 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{120)}00\phantom{4}\\120\overline{)2160}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 3^{rd} digit 6 from dividend 2160

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{120)}00\phantom{5}\\120\overline{)2160}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 120 to 216. We see that 1 \times 120 = 120 is the nearest. Now subtract 120 from 216 to get reminder 96. Add 1 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{120)}001\phantom{6}\\120\overline{)2160}\\\phantom{120)}\underline{\phantom{}120\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{120)9}96\\\end{array}$$

Use the 4^{th} digit 0 from dividend 2160

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{120)}001\phantom{7}\\120\overline{)2160}\\\phantom{120)}\underline{\phantom{}120\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{120)9}960\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 120 to 960. We see that 8 \times 120 = 960 is the nearest. Now subtract 960 from 960 to get reminder 0. Add 8 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{120)}0018\phantom{8}\\120\overline{)2160}\\\phantom{120)}\underline{\phantom{}120\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{120)9}960\\\phantom{120)}\underline{\phantom{9}960\phantom{}}\\\phantom{120)9999}0\\\end{array}$$

Since 0 is less than 120, stop the division. The reminder is 0. The topmost line 0018 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 18.

$$\text{Quotient: }18 \text{Reminder: }0$$

Factor

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