Step-by-Step Explanation

Here's how to solve 85,000 ÷ 12 using long division method step by step:

Step 1:Take the number 85 and divide by 12. We get 7 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 7 × 12 = 84 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 85 - 84 = 1. The remainder 1 is carried to the next step.
Step 2:Number 10 is less than divisor 12, so we write 0 in the quotient and move to the next digit.
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 7,083 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.
