Step-by-Step Explanation

Here's how to solve 140 ÷ 15 using long division method step by step:

Step 1:Take the number 140 and divide by 15. We get 9 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 9 × 15 = 135 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 140 - 135 = 5. The remainder 5 is carried to the next step.
Final Step:The remainder 5 is smaller than the divisor 15, so the division is complete. The final answer is 9 with remainder 5.

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.
