Solve 242div63=

$$242 \div 63=$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{242}{63}\approx 3.841269841$$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the 1^{st} digit 2 from dividend 242

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{63)}\phantom{1}\\63\overline{)242}\\\end{array}$$

Since 2 is less than 63, use the next digit 4 from dividend 242 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{63)}0\phantom{2}\\63\overline{)242}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 2^{nd} digit 4 from dividend 242

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{63)}0\phantom{3}\\63\overline{)242}\\\end{array}$$

Since 24 is less than 63, use the next digit 2 from dividend 242 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{63)}00\phantom{4}\\63\overline{)242}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 3^{rd} digit 2 from dividend 242

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{63)}00\phantom{5}\\63\overline{)242}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 63 to 242. We see that 3 \times 63 = 189 is the nearest. Now subtract 189 from 242 to get reminder 53. Add 3 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{63)}003\phantom{6}\\63\overline{)242}\\\phantom{63)}\underline{\phantom{}189\phantom{}}\\\phantom{63)9}53\\\end{array}$$

Since 53 is less than 63, stop the division. The reminder is 53. The topmost line 003 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 3.

$$\text{Quotient: }3 \text{Reminder: }53$$

Factor

$$\frac{2 \cdot 11 ^ {2}}{3 ^ {2} \cdot 7} = 3\frac{53}{63} = 3.8412698412698414$$
