Step-by-Step Explanation

Here's how to solve 324 ÷ 3 using long division method step by step:

Step 1:Take the number 3 and divide by 3. We get 1 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 1 × 3 = 3 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 3 - 3 = 0.
Step 2:Number 2 is less than divisor 3, so we write 0 in the quotient and move to the next digit.
Step 3:Take the number 24 and divide by 3. We get 8 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 8 × 3 = 24 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 24 - 24 = 0.
Final Step:The division is complete with no remainder. 324 divides exactly by 3 to give 108.

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.
