86 ÷ 3 in a column
| 2 | 8 | ||
| 3 | 8 | 6 | |
| − | 6 | ||
| 2 | 6 | ||
| − | 2 | 4 | |
| 2 |
In the column: quotient 28, remainder 2.
Step by step: 86 ÷ 3
- Step 18 ÷ 3 → 2: 2 × 3 = 6, 8 − 6 = 2; bring down 6 → 26
- Step 226 ÷ 3 → 8: 8 × 3 = 24, 26 − 24 = 2
- Quotient and remainder28 remainder 2
