Solve 7272:12=

$$7272 : 12 =$$

Evaluate

$$606$$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the 1^{st} digit 7 from dividend 7272

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{12)}\phantom{1}\\12\overline{)7272}\\\end{array}$$

Since 7 is less than 12, use the next digit 2 from dividend 7272 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{12)}0\phantom{2}\\12\overline{)7272}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 2^{nd} digit 2 from dividend 7272

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{12)}0\phantom{3}\\12\overline{)7272}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 12 to 72. We see that 6 \times 12 = 72 is the nearest. Now subtract 72 from 72 to get reminder 0. Add 6 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{12)}06\phantom{4}\\12\overline{)7272}\\\phantom{12)}\underline{\phantom{}72\phantom{99}}\\\phantom{12)99}0\\\end{array}$$

Use the 3^{rd} digit 7 from dividend 7272

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{12)}06\phantom{5}\\12\overline{)7272}\\\phantom{12)}\underline{\phantom{}72\phantom{99}}\\\phantom{12)99}7\\\end{array}$$

Since 7 is less than 12, use the next digit 2 from dividend 7272 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{12)}060\phantom{6}\\12\overline{)7272}\\\phantom{12)}\underline{\phantom{}72\phantom{99}}\\\phantom{12)99}7\\\end{array}$$

Use the 4^{th} digit 2 from dividend 7272

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{12)}060\phantom{7}\\12\overline{)7272}\\\phantom{12)}\underline{\phantom{}72\phantom{99}}\\\phantom{12)99}72\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 12 to 72. We see that 6 \times 12 = 72 is the nearest. Now subtract 72 from 72 to get reminder 0. Add 6 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{12)}0606\phantom{8}\\12\overline{)7272}\\\phantom{12)}\underline{\phantom{}72\phantom{99}}\\\phantom{12)99}72\\\phantom{12)}\underline{\phantom{99}72\phantom{}}\\\phantom{12)9999}0\\\end{array}$$

Since 0 is less than 12, stop the division. The reminder is 0. The topmost line 0606 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 606.

$$\text{Quotient: }606 \text{Reminder: }0$$
