Solve 39div26=

$$39 \div 26=$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{3}{2}=1.5$$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the 1^{st} digit 3 from dividend 39

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{26)}\phantom{1}\\26\overline{)39}\\\end{array}$$

Since 3 is less than 26, use the next digit 9 from dividend 39 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{26)}0\phantom{2}\\26\overline{)39}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 2^{nd} digit 9 from dividend 39

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{26)}0\phantom{3}\\26\overline{)39}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 26 to 39. We see that 1 \times 26 = 26 is the nearest. Now subtract 26 from 39 to get reminder 13. Add 1 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{26)}01\phantom{4}\\26\overline{)39}\\\phantom{26)}\underline{\phantom{}26\phantom{}}\\\phantom{26)}13\\\end{array}$$

Since 13 is less than 26, stop the division. The reminder is 13. The topmost line 01 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 1.

$$\text{Quotient: }1 \text{Reminder: }13$$

Factor

$$\frac{3}{2} = 1\frac{1}{2} = 1.5$$
