Question

$$108/15$$

Evaluate

$\frac{36}{5}=7.2$

Steps For Long Division Method

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

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{15)}\phantom{1}\\15\overline{)108}\\\end{array}$$

Since $1$ is less than $15$, use the next digit $0$ from dividend $108$ and add $0$ to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{15)}0\phantom{2}\\15\overline{)108}\\\end{array}$$

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

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{15)}0\phantom{3}\\15\overline{)108}\\\end{array}$$

Since $10$ is less than $15$, use the next digit $8$ from dividend $108$ and add $0$ to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{15)}00\phantom{4}\\15\overline{)108}\\\end{array}$$

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

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{15)}00\phantom{5}\\15\overline{)108}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of $15$ to $108$. We see that $7 \times 15 = 105$ is the nearest. Now subtract $105$ from $108$ to get reminder $3$. Add $7$ to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{15)}007\phantom{6}\\15\overline{)108}\\\phantom{15)}\underline{\phantom{}105\phantom{}}\\\phantom{15)99}3\\\end{array}$$

Since $3$ is less than $15$, stop the division. The reminder is $3$. The topmost line $007$ is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient $7$.

$$\text{Quotient: }7$$ $$\text{Reminder: }3$$
