Step-by-Step Explanation

Here's how to solve 314,472 ÷ 18 using long division method step by step:

Step 1:Take the number 31 and divide by 18. We get 1 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 1 × 18 = 18 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 31 - 18 = 13. The remainder 13 is carried to the next step.
Step 2:Take the number 134 and divide by 18. We get 7 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 7 × 18 = 126 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 134 - 126 = 8. The remainder 8 is carried to the next step.
Step 3:Take the number 84 and divide by 18. We get 4 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 4 × 18 = 72 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 84 - 72 = 12. The remainder 12 is carried to the next step.
Step 4:Take the number 127 and divide by 18. We get 7 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 7 × 18 = 126 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 127 - 126 = 1. The remainder 1 is carried to the next step.
Step 5:Number 12 is less than divisor 18, so we write 0 in the quotient and move to the next digit.
Final Step:The remainder 12 is smaller than the divisor 18, so the division is complete. The final answer is 17,470 with remainder 12.

Since 12 is less than 18, we cannot divide further. The final answer is 17,470 with remainder 12.

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.
