Step-by-Step Explanation

Here's how to solve 12,255 ÷ 43 using long division method step by step:

Step 1:Take the number 122 and divide by 43. We get 2 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 2 × 43 = 86 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 122 - 86 = 36. The remainder 36 is carried to the next step.
Step 2:Take the number 365 and divide by 43. We get 8 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 8 × 43 = 344 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 365 - 344 = 21. The remainder 21 is carried to the next step.
Step 3:Take the number 215 and divide by 43. We get 5 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 5 × 43 = 215 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 215 - 215 = 0.
Final Step:The division is complete with no remainder. 12,255 divides exactly by 43 to give 285.

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.
