Solve 56div19

$$56 \div 19$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{56}{19}\approx 2.947368421$$

Steps For Long Division Method

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

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{19)}\phantom{1}\\19\overline{)56}\\\end{array}$$

Since 5 is less than 19, use the next digit 6 from dividend 56 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{19)}0\phantom{2}\\19\overline{)56}\\\end{array}$$

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

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{19)}0\phantom{3}\\19\overline{)56}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 19 to 56. We see that 2 \times 19 = 38 is the nearest. Now subtract 38 from 56 to get reminder 18. Add 2 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{19)}02\phantom{4}\\19\overline{)56}\\\phantom{19)}\underline{\phantom{}38\phantom{}}\\\phantom{19)}18\\\end{array}$$

Since 18 is less than 19, stop the division. The reminder is 18. The topmost line 02 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 2.

$$\text{Quotient: }2 \text{Reminder: }18$$

Factor

$$\frac{2 ^ {3} \cdot 7}{19} = 2\frac{18}{19} = 2.9473684210526314$$
