Solve 3000div240

$$3000 \div 240$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{25}{2}=12.5$$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the 1^{st} digit 3 from dividend 3000

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{240)}\phantom{1}\\240\overline{)3000}\\\end{array}$$

Since 3 is less than 240, use the next digit 0 from dividend 3000 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{240)}0\phantom{2}\\240\overline{)3000}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 2^{nd} digit 0 from dividend 3000

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{240)}0\phantom{3}\\240\overline{)3000}\\\end{array}$$

Since 30 is less than 240, use the next digit 0 from dividend 3000 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{240)}00\phantom{4}\\240\overline{)3000}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 3^{rd} digit 0 from dividend 3000

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{240)}00\phantom{5}\\240\overline{)3000}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 240 to 300. We see that 1 \times 240 = 240 is the nearest. Now subtract 240 from 300 to get reminder 60. Add 1 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{240)}001\phantom{6}\\240\overline{)3000}\\\phantom{240)}\underline{\phantom{}240\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{240)9}60\\\end{array}$$

Use the 4^{th} digit 0 from dividend 3000

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{240)}001\phantom{7}\\240\overline{)3000}\\\phantom{240)}\underline{\phantom{}240\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{240)9}600\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 240 to 600. We see that 2 \times 240 = 480 is the nearest. Now subtract 480 from 600 to get reminder 120. Add 2 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{240)}0012\phantom{8}\\240\overline{)3000}\\\phantom{240)}\underline{\phantom{}240\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{240)9}600\\\phantom{240)}\underline{\phantom{9}480\phantom{}}\\\phantom{240)9}120\\\end{array}$$

Since 120 is less than 240, stop the division. The reminder is 120. The topmost line 0012 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 12.

$$\text{Quotient: }12 \text{Reminder: }120$$

Factor

$$\frac{5 ^ {2}}{2} = 12\frac{1}{2} = 12.5$$
