Step-by-Step Explanation

Here's how to solve 54999 ÷ 1000 using long division method step by step:

Step 1:Take the number 5499 and divide by 1000. We get 5 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 5 × 1000 = 5000 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 5499 - 5000 = 499. The remainder 499 is carried to the next step.
Step 2:Take the number 4999 and divide by 1000. We get 4 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 4 × 1000 = 4000 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 4999 - 4000 = 999. The remainder 999 is carried to the next step.
Final Step:The remainder 999 is smaller than the divisor 1000, so the division is complete. The final answer is 54 with remainder 999.

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.
