Step-by-Step Explanation

Here's how to solve 937 ÷ 72 using long division method step by step:

Step 1:Take the number 93 and divide by 72. We get 1 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 1 × 72 = 72 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 93 - 72 = 21. The remainder 21 is carried to the next step.
Step 2:Take the number 217 and divide by 72. We get 3 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 3 × 72 = 216 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 217 - 216 = 1. The remainder 1 is carried to the next step.
Final Step:The remainder 1 is smaller than the divisor 72, so the division is complete. The final answer is 13 with remainder 1.

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.
