Step-by-Step Explanation

Here's how to solve 55000 ÷ 12 using long division method step by step:

Step 1:Take the number 55 and divide by 12. We get 4 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 4 × 12 = 48 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 55 - 48 = 7. The remainder 7 is carried to the next step.
Step 2:Take the number 70 and divide by 12. We get 5 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 5 × 12 = 60 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 70 - 60 = 10. The remainder 10 is carried to the next step.
Step 3:Take the number 100 and divide by 12. We get 8 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 8 × 12 = 96 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 100 - 96 = 4. The remainder 4 is carried to the next step.
Step 4:Take the number 40 and divide by 12. We get 3 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 3 × 12 = 36 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 40 - 36 = 4. The remainder 4 is carried to the next step.
Final Step:The remainder 4 is smaller than the divisor 12, so the division is complete. The final answer is 4583 with remainder 4.

Since 4 is less than 12, we cannot divide further. The final answer is 4583 with remainder 4.

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.
