Solve 385div15

$$385 \div 15$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{77}{3}\approx 25.666666667$$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the 1^{st} digit 3 from dividend 385

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{15)}\phantom{1}\\15\overline{)385}\\\end{array}$$

Since 3 is less than 15, use the next digit 8 from dividend 385 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{15)}0\phantom{2}\\15\overline{)385}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 2^{nd} digit 8 from dividend 385

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{15)}0\phantom{3}\\15\overline{)385}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 15 to 38. We see that 2 \times 15 = 30 is the nearest. Now subtract 30 from 38 to get reminder 8. Add 2 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{15)}02\phantom{4}\\15\overline{)385}\\\phantom{15)}\underline{\phantom{}30\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{15)9}8\\\end{array}$$

Use the 3^{rd} digit 5 from dividend 385

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{15)}02\phantom{5}\\15\overline{)385}\\\phantom{15)}\underline{\phantom{}30\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{15)9}85\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 15 to 85. We see that 5 \times 15 = 75 is the nearest. Now subtract 75 from 85 to get reminder 10. Add 5 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{15)}025\phantom{6}\\15\overline{)385}\\\phantom{15)}\underline{\phantom{}30\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{15)9}85\\\phantom{15)}\underline{\phantom{9}75\phantom{}}\\\phantom{15)9}10\\\end{array}$$

Since 10 is less than 15, stop the division. The reminder is 10. The topmost line 025 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 25.

$$\text{Quotient: }25 \text{Reminder: }10$$

Factor

$$\frac{7 \cdot 11}{3} = 25\frac{2}{3} = 25.666666666666668$$
