Solve 45:36

$$45 : 36$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{5}{4}=1.25$$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the 1^{st} digit 4 from dividend 45

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{36)}\phantom{1}\\36\overline{)45}\\\end{array}$$

Since 4 is less than 36, use the next digit 5 from dividend 45 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{36)}0\phantom{2}\\36\overline{)45}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 2^{nd} digit 5 from dividend 45

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{36)}0\phantom{3}\\36\overline{)45}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 36 to 45. We see that 1 \times 36 = 36 is the nearest. Now subtract 36 from 45 to get reminder 9. Add 1 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{36)}01\phantom{4}\\36\overline{)45}\\\phantom{36)}\underline{\phantom{}36\phantom{}}\\\phantom{36)9}9\\\end{array}$$

Since 9 is less than 36, stop the division. The reminder is 9. The topmost line 01 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 1.

$$\text{Quotient: }1 \text{Reminder: }9$$

Factor

$$\frac{5}{2 ^ {2}} = 1\frac{1}{4} = 1.25$$
