Solve 236div32

$$236 \div 32$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{59}{8}=7.375$$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the 1^{st} digit 2 from dividend 236

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{32)}\phantom{1}\\32\overline{)236}\\\end{array}$$

Since 2 is less than 32, use the next digit 3 from dividend 236 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{32)}0\phantom{2}\\32\overline{)236}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 2^{nd} digit 3 from dividend 236

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{32)}0\phantom{3}\\32\overline{)236}\\\end{array}$$

Since 23 is less than 32, use the next digit 6 from dividend 236 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{32)}00\phantom{4}\\32\overline{)236}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 3^{rd} digit 6 from dividend 236

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{32)}00\phantom{5}\\32\overline{)236}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 32 to 236. We see that 7 \times 32 = 224 is the nearest. Now subtract 224 from 236 to get reminder 12. Add 7 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{32)}007\phantom{6}\\32\overline{)236}\\\phantom{32)}\underline{\phantom{}224\phantom{}}\\\phantom{32)9}12\\\end{array}$$

Since 12 is less than 32, stop the division. The reminder is 12. The topmost line 007 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 7.

$$\text{Quotient: }7 \text{Reminder: }12$$

Factor

$$\frac{59}{2 ^ {3}} = 7\frac{3}{8} = 7.375$$
