Solve 2482div12

$$2482 \div 12$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{1241}{6}\approx 206.833333333$$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the 1^{st} digit 2 from dividend 2482

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{12)}\phantom{1}\\12\overline{)2482}\\\end{array}$$

Since 2 is less than 12, use the next digit 4 from dividend 2482 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{12)}0\phantom{2}\\12\overline{)2482}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 2^{nd} digit 4 from dividend 2482

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{12)}0\phantom{3}\\12\overline{)2482}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 12 to 24. We see that 2 \times 12 = 24 is the nearest. Now subtract 24 from 24 to get reminder 0. Add 2 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{12)}02\phantom{4}\\12\overline{)2482}\\\phantom{12)}\underline{\phantom{}24\phantom{99}}\\\phantom{12)99}0\\\end{array}$$

Use the 3^{rd} digit 8 from dividend 2482

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{12)}02\phantom{5}\\12\overline{)2482}\\\phantom{12)}\underline{\phantom{}24\phantom{99}}\\\phantom{12)99}8\\\end{array}$$

Since 8 is less than 12, use the next digit 2 from dividend 2482 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{12)}020\phantom{6}\\12\overline{)2482}\\\phantom{12)}\underline{\phantom{}24\phantom{99}}\\\phantom{12)99}8\\\end{array}$$

Use the 4^{th} digit 2 from dividend 2482

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{12)}020\phantom{7}\\12\overline{)2482}\\\phantom{12)}\underline{\phantom{}24\phantom{99}}\\\phantom{12)99}82\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 12 to 82. We see that 6 \times 12 = 72 is the nearest. Now subtract 72 from 82 to get reminder 10. Add 6 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{12)}0206\phantom{8}\\12\overline{)2482}\\\phantom{12)}\underline{\phantom{}24\phantom{99}}\\\phantom{12)99}82\\\phantom{12)}\underline{\phantom{99}72\phantom{}}\\\phantom{12)99}10\\\end{array}$$

Since 10 is less than 12, stop the division. The reminder is 10. The topmost line 0206 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 206.

$$\text{Quotient: }206 \text{Reminder: }10$$

Factor

$$\frac{17 \cdot 73}{2 \cdot 3} = 206\frac{5}{6} = 206.83333333333334$$
