Step-by-Step Explanation

Here's how to solve 187,000 ÷ 52 using long division method step by step:

Step 1:Take the number 187 and divide by 52. We get 3 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 3 × 52 = 156 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 187 - 156 = 31. The remainder 31 is carried to the next step.
Step 2:Take the number 310 and divide by 52. We get 5 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 5 × 52 = 260 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 310 - 260 = 50. The remainder 50 is carried to the next step.
Step 3:Take the number 500 and divide by 52. We get 9 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 9 × 52 = 468 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 500 - 468 = 32. The remainder 32 is carried to the next step.
Step 4:Take the number 320 and divide by 52. We get 6 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 6 × 52 = 312 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 320 - 312 = 8. The remainder 8 is carried to the next step.
Final Step:The remainder 8 is smaller than the divisor 52, so the division is complete. The final answer is 3,596 with remainder 8.

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.
