Step-by-Step Explanation

Here's how to solve 999999 ÷ 80 using long division method step by step:

Step 1:Take the number 99 and divide by 80. We get 1 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 1 × 80 = 80 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 99 - 80 = 19. The remainder 19 is carried to the next step.
Step 2:Take the number 199 and divide by 80. We get 2 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 2 × 80 = 160 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 199 - 160 = 39. The remainder 39 is carried to the next step.
Step 3:Take the number 399 and divide by 80. We get 4 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 4 × 80 = 320 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 399 - 320 = 79. The remainder 79 is carried to the next step.
Step 4:Take the number 799 and divide by 80. We get 9 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 9 × 80 = 720 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 799 - 720 = 79. The remainder 79 is carried to the next step.
Step 5:Take the number 799 and divide by 80. We get 9 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 9 × 80 = 720 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 799 - 720 = 79. The remainder 79 is carried to the next step.
Final Step:The remainder 79 is smaller than the divisor 80, so the division is complete. The final answer is 12499 with remainder 79.

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.
