$$35900 \div 60$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{1795}{3}\approx 598.333333333$$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the 1^{st} digit 3 from dividend 35900

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{60)}\phantom{1}\\60\overline{)35900}\\\end{array}$$

Since 3 is less than 60, use the next digit 5 from dividend 35900 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{60)}0\phantom{2}\\60\overline{)35900}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 2^{nd} digit 5 from dividend 35900

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{60)}0\phantom{3}\\60\overline{)35900}\\\end{array}$$

Since 35 is less than 60, use the next digit 9 from dividend 35900 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{60)}00\phantom{4}\\60\overline{)35900}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 3^{rd} digit 9 from dividend 35900

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{60)}00\phantom{5}\\60\overline{)35900}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 60 to 359. We see that 5 \times 60 = 300 is the nearest. Now subtract 300 from 359 to get reminder 59. Add 5 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{60)}005\phantom{6}\\60\overline{)35900}\\\phantom{60)}\underline{\phantom{}300\phantom{99}}\\\phantom{60)9}59\\\end{array}$$

Use the 4^{th} digit 0 from dividend 35900

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{60)}005\phantom{7}\\60\overline{)35900}\\\phantom{60)}\underline{\phantom{}300\phantom{99}}\\\phantom{60)9}590\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 60 to 590. We see that 9 \times 60 = 540 is the nearest. Now subtract 540 from 590 to get reminder 50. Add 9 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{60)}0059\phantom{8}\\60\overline{)35900}\\\phantom{60)}\underline{\phantom{}300\phantom{99}}\\\phantom{60)9}590\\\phantom{60)}\underline{\phantom{9}540\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{60)99}50\\\end{array}$$

Use the 5^{th} digit 0 from dividend 35900

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{60)}0059\phantom{9}\\60\overline{)35900}\\\phantom{60)}\underline{\phantom{}300\phantom{99}}\\\phantom{60)9}590\\\phantom{60)}\underline{\phantom{9}540\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{60)99}500\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 60 to 500. We see that 8 \times 60 = 480 is the nearest. Now subtract 480 from 500 to get reminder 20. Add 8 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{60)}00598\phantom{10}\\60\overline{)35900}\\\phantom{60)}\underline{\phantom{}300\phantom{99}}\\\phantom{60)9}590\\\phantom{60)}\underline{\phantom{9}540\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{60)99}500\\\phantom{60)}\underline{\phantom{99}480\phantom{}}\\\phantom{60)999}20\\\end{array}$$

Since 20 is less than 60, stop the division. The reminder is 20. The topmost line 00598 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 598.

$$\text{Quotient: }598 \text{Reminder: }20$$

Factor

$$\frac{5 \cdot 359}{3} = 598\frac{1}{3} = 598.3333333333334$$
