Solve 225div90

$$225 \div 90$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{5}{2}=2.5$$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the 1^{st} digit 2 from dividend 225

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{90)}\phantom{1}\\90\overline{)225}\\\end{array}$$

Since 2 is less than 90, use the next digit 2 from dividend 225 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{90)}0\phantom{2}\\90\overline{)225}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 2^{nd} digit 2 from dividend 225

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{90)}0\phantom{3}\\90\overline{)225}\\\end{array}$$

Since 22 is less than 90, use the next digit 5 from dividend 225 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{90)}00\phantom{4}\\90\overline{)225}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 3^{rd} digit 5 from dividend 225

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{90)}00\phantom{5}\\90\overline{)225}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 90 to 225. We see that 2 \times 90 = 180 is the nearest. Now subtract 180 from 225 to get reminder 45. Add 2 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{90)}002\phantom{6}\\90\overline{)225}\\\phantom{90)}\underline{\phantom{}180\phantom{}}\\\phantom{90)9}45\\\end{array}$$

Since 45 is less than 90, stop the division. The reminder is 45. The topmost line 002 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 2.

$$\text{Quotient: }2 \text{Reminder: }45$$

Factor

$$\frac{5}{2} = 2\frac{1}{2} = 2.5$$
