Step-by-Step Explanation

Here's how to solve 974 ÷ 75 using long division method step by step:

Step 1:Take the number 97 and divide by 75. We get 1 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 1 × 75 = 75 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 97 - 75 = 22. The remainder 22 is carried to the next step.
Step 2:Take the number 224 and divide by 75. We get 2 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 2 × 75 = 150 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 224 - 150 = 74. The remainder 74 is carried to the next step.
Final Step:The remainder 74 is smaller than the divisor 75, so the division is complete. The final answer is 12 with remainder 74.

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.
