Solve 240div180

$$240 \div 180$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{4}{3}\approx 1.333333333$$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the 1^{st} digit 2 from dividend 240

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{180)}\phantom{1}\\180\overline{)240}\\\end{array}$$

Since 2 is less than 180, use the next digit 4 from dividend 240 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{180)}0\phantom{2}\\180\overline{)240}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 2^{nd} digit 4 from dividend 240

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{180)}0\phantom{3}\\180\overline{)240}\\\end{array}$$

Since 24 is less than 180, use the next digit 0 from dividend 240 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{180)}00\phantom{4}\\180\overline{)240}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 3^{rd} digit 0 from dividend 240

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{180)}00\phantom{5}\\180\overline{)240}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 180 to 240. We see that 1 \times 180 = 180 is the nearest. Now subtract 180 from 240 to get reminder 60. Add 1 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{180)}001\phantom{6}\\180\overline{)240}\\\phantom{180)}\underline{\phantom{}180\phantom{}}\\\phantom{180)9}60\\\end{array}$$

Since 60 is less than 180, stop the division. The reminder is 60. The topmost line 001 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 1.

$$\text{Quotient: }1 \text{Reminder: }60$$

Factor

$$\frac{2 ^ {2}}{3} = 1\frac{1}{3} = 1.3333333333333333$$
