Solve 720div10

$$720 \div 10$$

Evaluate

$$72$$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the 1^{st} digit 7 from dividend 720

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{10)}\phantom{1}\\10\overline{)720}\\\end{array}$$

Since 7 is less than 10, use the next digit 2 from dividend 720 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{10)}0\phantom{2}\\10\overline{)720}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 2^{nd} digit 2 from dividend 720

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{10)}0\phantom{3}\\10\overline{)720}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 10 to 72. We see that 7 \times 10 = 70 is the nearest. Now subtract 70 from 72 to get reminder 2. Add 7 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{10)}07\phantom{4}\\10\overline{)720}\\\phantom{10)}\underline{\phantom{}70\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{10)9}2\\\end{array}$$

Use the 3^{rd} digit 0 from dividend 720

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{10)}07\phantom{5}\\10\overline{)720}\\\phantom{10)}\underline{\phantom{}70\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{10)9}20\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 10 to 20. We see that 2 \times 10 = 20 is the nearest. Now subtract 20 from 20 to get reminder 0. Add 2 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{10)}072\phantom{6}\\10\overline{)720}\\\phantom{10)}\underline{\phantom{}70\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{10)9}20\\\phantom{10)}\underline{\phantom{9}20\phantom{}}\\\phantom{10)999}0\\\end{array}$$

Since 0 is less than 10, stop the division. The reminder is 0. The topmost line 072 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 72.

$$\text{Quotient: }72 \text{Reminder: }0$$

Factor

$$2^{3}\times 3^{2}$$
