Solve 70div17=

$$70 \div 17=$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{70}{17}\approx 4.117647059$$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the 1^{st} digit 7 from dividend 70

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{17)}\phantom{1}\\17\overline{)70}\\\end{array}$$

Since 7 is less than 17, use the next digit 0 from dividend 70 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{17)}0\phantom{2}\\17\overline{)70}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 2^{nd} digit 0 from dividend 70

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{17)}0\phantom{3}\\17\overline{)70}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 17 to 70. We see that 4 \times 17 = 68 is the nearest. Now subtract 68 from 70 to get reminder 2. Add 4 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{17)}04\phantom{4}\\17\overline{)70}\\\phantom{17)}\underline{\phantom{}68\phantom{}}\\\phantom{17)9}2\\\end{array}$$

Since 2 is less than 17, stop the division. The reminder is 2. The topmost line 04 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 4.

$$\text{Quotient: }4 \text{Reminder: }2$$

Factor

$$\frac{2 \cdot 5 \cdot 7}{17} = 4\frac{2}{17} = 4.117647058823529$$
