Question

$$108/12$$

Evaluate

$9$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the $1^{st}$ digit $1$ from dividend $108$

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{12)}\phantom{1}\\12\overline{)108}\\\end{array}$$

Since $1$ is less than $12$, use the next digit $0$ from dividend $108$ and add $0$ to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{12)}0\phantom{2}\\12\overline{)108}\\\end{array}$$

Use the $2^{nd}$ digit $0$ from dividend $108$

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{12)}0\phantom{3}\\12\overline{)108}\\\end{array}$$

Since $10$ is less than $12$, use the next digit $8$ from dividend $108$ and add $0$ to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{12)}00\phantom{4}\\12\overline{)108}\\\end{array}$$

Use the $3^{rd}$ digit $8$ from dividend $108$

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{12)}00\phantom{5}\\12\overline{)108}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of $12$ to $108$. We see that $9 \times 12 = 108$ is the nearest. Now subtract $108$ from $108$ to get reminder $0$. Add $9$ to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{12)}009\phantom{6}\\12\overline{)108}\\\phantom{12)}\underline{\phantom{}108\phantom{}}\\\phantom{12)999}0\\\end{array}$$

Since $0$ is less than $12$, stop the division. The reminder is $0$. The topmost line $009$ is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient $9$.

$$\text{Quotient: }9$$ $$\text{Reminder: }0$$
