Step-by-Step Explanation

Here's how to solve 99998 ÷ 250 using long division method step by step:

Step 1:Take the number 999 and divide by 250. We get 3 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 3 × 250 = 750 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 999 - 750 = 249. The remainder 249 is carried to the next step.
Step 2:Take the number 2499 and divide by 250. We get 9 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 9 × 250 = 2250 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 2499 - 2250 = 249. The remainder 249 is carried to the next step.
Step 3:Take the number 2498 and divide by 250. We get 9 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 9 × 250 = 2250 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 2498 - 2250 = 248. The remainder 248 is carried to the next step.
Final Step:The remainder 248 is smaller than the divisor 250, so the division is complete. The final answer is 399 with remainder 248.

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.
