Step-by-Step Explanation

Here's how to solve 15,038 ÷ 73 using long division method step by step:

Step 1:Take the number 150 and divide by 73. We get 2 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 2 × 73 = 146 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 150 - 146 = 4. The remainder 4 is carried to the next step.
Step 2:Number 43 is less than divisor 73, so we write 0 in the quotient and move to the next digit.
Step 3:Take the number 438 and divide by 73. We get 6 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 6 × 73 = 438 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 438 - 438 = 0.
Final Step:The division is complete with no remainder. 15,038 divides exactly by 73 to give 206.

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.
