Solve 300div157=

$$300 \div 157=$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{300}{157}\approx 1.910828025$$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the 1^{st} digit 3 from dividend 300

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{157)}\phantom{1}\\157\overline{)300}\\\end{array}$$

Since 3 is less than 157, use the next digit 0 from dividend 300 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{157)}0\phantom{2}\\157\overline{)300}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 2^{nd} digit 0 from dividend 300

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{157)}0\phantom{3}\\157\overline{)300}\\\end{array}$$

Since 30 is less than 157, use the next digit 0 from dividend 300 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{157)}00\phantom{4}\\157\overline{)300}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 3^{rd} digit 0 from dividend 300

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{157)}00\phantom{5}\\157\overline{)300}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 157 to 300. We see that 1 \times 157 = 157 is the nearest. Now subtract 157 from 300 to get reminder 143. Add 1 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{157)}001\phantom{6}\\157\overline{)300}\\\phantom{157)}\underline{\phantom{}157\phantom{}}\\\phantom{157)}143\\\end{array}$$

Since 143 is less than 157, stop the division. The reminder is 143. The topmost line 001 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 1.

$$\text{Quotient: }1 \text{Reminder: }143$$

Factor

$$\frac{2 ^ {2} \cdot 3 \cdot 5 ^ {2}}{157} = 1\frac{143}{157} = 1.910828025477707$$
