Step-by-Step Explanation

Here's how to solve 999999 ÷ 300 using long division method step by step:

Step 1:Take the number 999 and divide by 300. We get 3 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 3 × 300 = 900 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 999 - 900 = 99. The remainder 99 is carried to the next step.
Step 2:Take the number 999 and divide by 300. We get 3 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 3 × 300 = 900 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 999 - 900 = 99. The remainder 99 is carried to the next step.
Step 3:Take the number 999 and divide by 300. We get 3 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 3 × 300 = 900 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 999 - 900 = 99. The remainder 99 is carried to the next step.
Step 4:Take the number 999 and divide by 300. We get 3 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 3 × 300 = 900 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 999 - 900 = 99. The remainder 99 is carried to the next step.
Final Step:The remainder 99 is smaller than the divisor 300, so the division is complete. The final answer is 3333 with remainder 99.

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.
