Solve 45div27

$$45 \div 27$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{5}{3}\approx 1.666666667$$

Steps For Long Division Method

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

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{27)}\phantom{1}\\27\overline{)45}\\\end{array}$$

Since 4 is less than 27, use the next digit 5 from dividend 45 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{27)}0\phantom{2}\\27\overline{)45}\\\end{array}$$

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

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{27)}0\phantom{3}\\27\overline{)45}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 27 to 45. We see that 1 \times 27 = 27 is the nearest. Now subtract 27 from 45 to get reminder 18. Add 1 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{27)}01\phantom{4}\\27\overline{)45}\\\phantom{27)}\underline{\phantom{}27\phantom{}}\\\phantom{27)}18\\\end{array}$$

Since 18 is less than 27, stop the division. The reminder is 18. The topmost line 01 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 1.

$$\text{Quotient: }1 \text{Reminder: }18$$

Factor

$$\frac{5}{3} = 1\frac{2}{3} = 1.6666666666666667$$
