Step-by-Step Explanation

Here's how to solve 9999998 ÷ 2000 using long division method step by step:

Step 1:Take the number 9999 and divide by 2000. We get 4 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 4 × 2000 = 8000 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 9999 - 8000 = 1999. The remainder 1999 is carried to the next step.
Step 2:Take the number 19999 and divide by 2000. We get 9 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 9 × 2000 = 18000 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 19999 - 18000 = 1999. The remainder 1999 is carried to the next step.
Step 3:Take the number 19999 and divide by 2000. We get 9 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 9 × 2000 = 18000 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 19999 - 18000 = 1999. The remainder 1999 is carried to the next step.
Step 4:Take the number 19998 and divide by 2000. We get 9 (write it in the quotient). Multiply 9 × 2000 = 18000 (write it below the dividend). Subtract 19998 - 18000 = 1998. The remainder 1998 is carried to the next step.
Final Step:The remainder 1998 is smaller than the divisor 2000, so the division is complete. The final answer is 4999 with remainder 1998.

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.
