How to divide 1 by 3 using long division and find the remainder?

Answer

1 ÷ 3 = 0 remainder 1

= 0.3 ≈ 0.33

1 is less than 3, so the whole part is 0 and all of 1 is the remainder. Check: 0 × 3 + 1 = 1.

In the column: quotient 0, remainder 1.

Step by step: 1 ÷ 3

  1. Step 11 < 3 → 0
  2. Quotient and remainder0 remainder 1

After the point, add a zero to the remainder: 10 ÷ 3 → 3, remainder 1; remainder 1 again — the digits repeat.

1 ÷ 3 = 0.3 ≈ 0.33
