Step-by-Step Explanation

Here's how to solve 12000 ÷ 800 using long division method step by step:

Step 1: Take the number 1200 and divide by 800. We get 1 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 1 × 800 = 800 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 1200 - 800 = 400. The remainder 400 is carried to the next step.
Step 2: Take the number 4000 and divide by 800. We get 5 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 5 × 800 = 4000 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 4000 - 4000 = 0.
Final Step: The division is complete with no remainder. 12000 divides exactly by 800 to give 15.

About Long Division

Long division is a method for dividing large numbers that breaks down the division process into smaller, manageable steps. It's taught in elementary school as a systematic way to perform division by hand.

The process involves:

  • Dividing the leftmost digits of the dividend by the divisor
  • Writing the quotient digit above the dividend
  • Multiplying the quotient digit by the divisor
  • Subtracting this product from the current dividend portion
  • Bringing down the next digit and repeating the process

This method ensures accuracy and helps students understand the relationship between multiplication and division.
