Solve 56div28

$$56 \div 28$$

Evaluate

$$2$$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the 1^{st} digit 5 from dividend 56

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{28)}\phantom{1}\\28\overline{)56}\\\end{array}$$

Since 5 is less than 28, use the next digit 6 from dividend 56 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{28)}0\phantom{2}\\28\overline{)56}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 2^{nd} digit 6 from dividend 56

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{28)}0\phantom{3}\\28\overline{)56}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 28 to 56. We see that 2 \times 28 = 56 is the nearest. Now subtract 56 from 56 to get reminder 0. Add 2 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{28)}02\phantom{4}\\28\overline{)56}\\\phantom{28)}\underline{\phantom{}56\phantom{}}\\\phantom{28)99}0\\\end{array}$$

Since 0 is less than 28, stop the division. The reminder is 0. The topmost line 02 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 2.

$$\text{Quotient: }2 \text{Reminder: }0$$

Factor

$$2$$
