Solve 336/56

$$336 / 56$$

Evaluate

$$6$$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the 1^{st} digit 3 from dividend 336

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{56)}\phantom{1}\\56\overline{)336}\\\end{array}$$

Since 3 is less than 56, use the next digit 3 from dividend 336 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{56)}0\phantom{2}\\56\overline{)336}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 2^{nd} digit 3 from dividend 336

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{56)}0\phantom{3}\\56\overline{)336}\\\end{array}$$

Since 33 is less than 56, use the next digit 6 from dividend 336 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{56)}00\phantom{4}\\56\overline{)336}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 3^{rd} digit 6 from dividend 336

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{56)}00\phantom{5}\\56\overline{)336}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 56 to 336. We see that 6 \times 56 = 336 is the nearest. Now subtract 336 from 336 to get reminder 0. Add 6 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{56)}006\phantom{6}\\56\overline{)336}\\\phantom{56)}\underline{\phantom{}336\phantom{}}\\\phantom{56)999}0\\\end{array}$$

Since 0 is less than 56, stop the division. The reminder is 0. The topmost line 006 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 6.

$$\text{Quotient: }6 \text{Reminder: }0$$

Factor

$$2\times 3$$
