Solve 476div24

$$476 \div 24$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{119}{6}\approx 19.833333333$$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the 1^{st} digit 4 from dividend 476

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{24)}\phantom{1}\\24\overline{)476}\\\end{array}$$

Since 4 is less than 24, use the next digit 7 from dividend 476 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{24)}0\phantom{2}\\24\overline{)476}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 2^{nd} digit 7 from dividend 476

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{24)}0\phantom{3}\\24\overline{)476}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 24 to 47. We see that 1 \times 24 = 24 is the nearest. Now subtract 24 from 47 to get reminder 23. Add 1 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{24)}01\phantom{4}\\24\overline{)476}\\\phantom{24)}\underline{\phantom{}24\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{24)}23\\\end{array}$$

Use the 3^{rd} digit 6 from dividend 476

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{24)}01\phantom{5}\\24\overline{)476}\\\phantom{24)}\underline{\phantom{}24\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{24)}236\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 24 to 236. We see that 9 \times 24 = 216 is the nearest. Now subtract 216 from 236 to get reminder 20. Add 9 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{24)}019\phantom{6}\\24\overline{)476}\\\phantom{24)}\underline{\phantom{}24\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{24)}236\\\phantom{24)}\underline{\phantom{}216\phantom{}}\\\phantom{24)9}20\\\end{array}$$

Since 20 is less than 24, stop the division. The reminder is 20. The topmost line 019 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 19.

$$\text{Quotient: }19 \text{Reminder: }20$$

Factor

$$\frac{7 \cdot 17}{2 \cdot 3} = 19\frac{5}{6} = 19.833333333333332$$
