Step-by-Step Explanation

Here's how to solve 999999 ÷ 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 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.
Final Step: The remainder 15 is smaller than the divisor 16, so the division is complete. The final answer is 62499 with remainder 15.

Division Steps

Step Dividend Part Quotient Digit Multiply Subtract Remainder
1 99 6 6 × 16 = 96 99 - 96 = 3 3
2 39 2 2 × 16 = 32 39 - 32 = 7 7
3 79 4 4 × 16 = 64 79 - 64 = 15 15
4 159 9 9 × 16 = 144 159 - 144 = 15 15
5 159 9 9 × 16 = 144 159 - 144 = 15 15

Final remainder: 15

Since 15 is less than 16, we cannot divide further. The final answer is 62499 with remainder 15.

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.
