Step-by-Step Explanation

Here's how to solve 500000 ÷ 99 using long division method step by step:

Step 1:Take the number 500 and divide by 99. We get 5 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 5 × 99 = 495 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 500 - 495 = 5. The remainder 5 is carried to the next step.
Step 2:Number 50 is less than divisor 99, so we write 0 in the quotient and move to the next digit.
Step 3:Take the number 500 and divide by 99. We get 5 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 5 × 99 = 495 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 500 - 495 = 5. The remainder 5 is carried to the next step.
Step 4:Number 50 is less than divisor 99, so we write 0 in the quotient and move to the next digit.
Final Step:The remainder 50 is smaller than the divisor 99, so the division is complete. The final answer is 5050 with remainder 50.

45000 × 99 = 050 - 0 = 5050

Final remainder: 50

Since 50 is less than 99, we cannot divide further. The final answer is 5050 with remainder 50.

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.
