Solve 480div96

$$480 \div 96$$

Evaluate

$$5$$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the 1^{st} digit 4 from dividend 480

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{96)}\phantom{1}\\96\overline{)480}\\\end{array}$$

Since 4 is less than 96, use the next digit 8 from dividend 480 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{96)}0\phantom{2}\\96\overline{)480}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 2^{nd} digit 8 from dividend 480

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{96)}0\phantom{3}\\96\overline{)480}\\\end{array}$$

Since 48 is less than 96, use the next digit 0 from dividend 480 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{96)}00\phantom{4}\\96\overline{)480}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 3^{rd} digit 0 from dividend 480

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{96)}00\phantom{5}\\96\overline{)480}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 96 to 480. We see that 5 \times 96 = 480 is the nearest. Now subtract 480 from 480 to get reminder 0. Add 5 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{96)}005\phantom{6}\\96\overline{)480}\\\phantom{96)}\underline{\phantom{}480\phantom{}}\\\phantom{96)999}0\\\end{array}$$

Since 0 is less than 96, stop the division. The reminder is 0. The topmost line 005 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 5.

$$\text{Quotient: }5 \text{Reminder: }0$$
