Step-by-Step Explanation

Here's how to solve 999999 ÷ 12 using long division method step by step:

Step 1: Take the number 99 and divide by 12. We get 8 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 8 × 12 = 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 12. We get 3 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 3 × 12 = 36 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 39 - 36 = 3. The remainder 3 is carried to the next step.
Step 3: Take the number 39 and divide by 12. We get 3 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 3 × 12 = 36 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 39 - 36 = 3. The remainder 3 is carried to the next step.
Step 4: Take the number 39 and divide by 12. We get 3 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 3 × 12 = 36 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 39 - 36 = 3. The remainder 3 is carried to the next step.
Step 5: Take the number 39 and divide by 12. We get 3 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 3 × 12 = 36 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 39 - 36 = 3. The remainder 3 is carried to the next step.
Final Step: The remainder 3 is smaller than the divisor 12, so the division is complete. The final answer is 83333 with remainder 3.

Division Steps

Step Dividend Part Quotient Digit Multiply Subtract Remainder
1 99 8 8 × 12 = 96 99 - 96 = 3 3
2 39 3 3 × 12 = 36 39 - 36 = 3 3
3 39 3 3 × 12 = 36 39 - 36 = 3 3
4 39 3 3 × 12 = 36 39 - 36 = 3 3
5 39 3 3 × 12 = 36 39 - 36 = 3 3

Final remainder: 3

Since 3 is less than 12, we cannot divide further. The final answer is 83333 with remainder 3.

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.
