Solve 7200div125

$$7200 \div 125$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{288}{5}=57.6$$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the 1^{st} digit 7 from dividend 7200

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{125)}\phantom{1}\\125\overline{)7200}\\\end{array}$$

Since 7 is less than 125, use the next digit 2 from dividend 7200 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{125)}0\phantom{2}\\125\overline{)7200}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 2^{nd} digit 2 from dividend 7200

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{125)}0\phantom{3}\\125\overline{)7200}\\\end{array}$$

Since 72 is less than 125, use the next digit 0 from dividend 7200 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{125)}00\phantom{4}\\125\overline{)7200}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 3^{rd} digit 0 from dividend 7200

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{125)}00\phantom{5}\\125\overline{)7200}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 125 to 720. We see that 5 \times 125 = 625 is the nearest. Now subtract 625 from 720 to get reminder 95. Add 5 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{125)}005\phantom{6}\\125\overline{)7200}\\\phantom{125)}\underline{\phantom{}625\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{125)9}95\\\end{array}$$

Use the 4^{th} digit 0 from dividend 7200

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{125)}005\phantom{7}\\125\overline{)7200}\\\phantom{125)}\underline{\phantom{}625\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{125)9}950\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 125 to 950. We see that 7 \times 125 = 875 is the nearest. Now subtract 875 from 950 to get reminder 75. Add 7 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{125)}0057\phantom{8}\\125\overline{)7200}\\\phantom{125)}\underline{\phantom{}625\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{125)9}950\\\phantom{125)}\underline{\phantom{9}875\phantom{}}\\\phantom{125)99}75\\\end{array}$$

Since 75 is less than 125, stop the division. The reminder is 75. The topmost line 0057 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 57.

$$\text{Quotient: }57 \text{Reminder: }75$$

Factor

$$\frac{2 ^ {5} \cdot 3 ^ {2}}{5} = 57\frac{3}{5} = 57.6$$
