Step-by-Step Explanation

Here's how to solve 999998 ÷ 16 using long division method step by step:

Step 1:Take the number 99 and divide by 16. We get 6 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 6 × 16 = 96 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 99 - 96 = 3. The remainder 3 is carried to the next step.
Step 2:Take the number 39 and divide by 16. We get 2 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 2 × 16 = 32 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 39 - 32 = 7. The remainder 7 is carried to the next step.
Step 3:Take the number 79 and divide by 16. We get 4 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 4 × 16 = 64 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 79 - 64 = 15. The remainder 15 is carried to the next step.
Step 4:Take the number 159 and divide by 16. We get 9 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 9 × 16 = 144 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 159 - 144 = 15. The remainder 15 is carried to the next step.
Step 5:Take the number 158 and divide by 16. We get 9 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 9 × 16 = 144 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 158 - 144 = 14. The remainder 14 is carried to the next step.
Final Step:The remainder 14 is smaller than the divisor 16, so the division is complete. The final answer is 62499 with remainder 14.

415999 × 16 = 144159 - 144 = 1515
515899 × 16 = 144158 - 144 = 1414

Final remainder: 14

Since 14 is less than 16, we cannot divide further. The final answer is 62499 with remainder 14.

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.
