Solve 562:30

$$562 : 30$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{281}{15}\approx 18.733333333$$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the 1^{st} digit 5 from dividend 562

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{30)}\phantom{1}\\30\overline{)562}\\\end{array}$$

Since 5 is less than 30, use the next digit 6 from dividend 562 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{30)}0\phantom{2}\\30\overline{)562}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 2^{nd} digit 6 from dividend 562

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{30)}0\phantom{3}\\30\overline{)562}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 30 to 56. We see that 1 \times 30 = 30 is the nearest. Now subtract 30 from 56 to get reminder 26. Add 1 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{30)}01\phantom{4}\\30\overline{)562}\\\phantom{30)}\underline{\phantom{}30\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{30)}26\\\end{array}$$

Use the 3^{rd} digit 2 from dividend 562

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{30)}01\phantom{5}\\30\overline{)562}\\\phantom{30)}\underline{\phantom{}30\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{30)}262\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 30 to 262. We see that 8 \times 30 = 240 is the nearest. Now subtract 240 from 262 to get reminder 22. Add 8 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{30)}018\phantom{6}\\30\overline{)562}\\\phantom{30)}\underline{\phantom{}30\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{30)}262\\\phantom{30)}\underline{\phantom{}240\phantom{}}\\\phantom{30)9}22\\\end{array}$$

Since 22 is less than 30, stop the division. The reminder is 22. The topmost line 018 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 18.

$$\text{Quotient: }18 \text{Reminder: }22$$

Factor

$$\frac{281}{3 \cdot 5} = 18\frac{11}{15} = 18.733333333333334$$
