Solve 78div35=

$$78 \div 35=$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{78}{35}\approx 2.228571429$$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the 1^{st} digit 7 from dividend 78

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{35)}\phantom{1}\\35\overline{)78}\\\end{array}$$

Since 7 is less than 35, use the next digit 8 from dividend 78 and add 0 to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{35)}0\phantom{2}\\35\overline{)78}\\\end{array}$$

Use the 2^{nd} digit 8 from dividend 78

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{35)}0\phantom{3}\\35\overline{)78}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of 35 to 78. We see that 2 \times 35 = 70 is the nearest. Now subtract 70 from 78 to get reminder 8. Add 2 to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{35)}02\phantom{4}\\35\overline{)78}\\\phantom{35)}\underline{\phantom{}70\phantom{}}\\\phantom{35)9}8\\\end{array}$$

Since 8 is less than 35, stop the division. The reminder is 8. The topmost line 02 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 2.

$$\text{Quotient: }2 \text{Reminder: }8$$

Factor

$$\frac{2 \cdot 3 \cdot 13}{5 \cdot 7} = 2\frac{8}{35} = 2.2285714285714286$$
