Step-by-Step Explanation

Here's how to solve 162 ÷ 9 using long division method step by step:

Step 1: Take the number 16 and divide by 9. We get 1 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 1 × 9 = 9 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 16 - 9 = 7. The remainder 7 is carried to the next step.
Step 2: Take the number 72 and divide by 9. We get 8 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 8 × 9 = 72 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 72 - 72 = 0.
Final Step: The division is complete with no remainder. 162 divides exactly by 9 to give 18.

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.
