Steps For Long Division Method

Use the $1^{st}$ digit $1$ from dividend $1200$

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{150)}\phantom{1}\\150\overline{)1200}\\\end{array}$$

Since $1$ is less than $150$, use the next digit $2$ from dividend $1200$ and add $0$ to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{150)}0\phantom{2}\\150\overline{)1200}\\\end{array}$$

Use the $2^{nd}$ digit $2$ from dividend $1200$

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{150)}0\phantom{3}\\150\overline{)1200}\\\end{array}$$

Since $12$ is less than $150$, use the next digit $0$ from dividend $1200$ and add $0$ to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{150)}00\phantom{4}\\150\overline{)1200}\\\end{array}$$

Use the $3^{rd}$ digit $0$ from dividend $1200$

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{150)}00\phantom{5}\\150\overline{)1200}\\\end{array}$$

Since $120$ is less than $150$, use the next digit $0$ from dividend $1200$ and add $0$ to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{150)}000\phantom{6}\\150\overline{)1200}\\\end{array}$$

Use the $4^{th}$ digit $0$ from dividend $1200$

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{150)}000\phantom{7}\\150\overline{)1200}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of $150$ to $1200$. We see that $8 \times 150 = 1200$ is the nearest. Now subtract $1200$ from $1200$ to get reminder $0$. Add $8$ to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{150)}0008\phantom{8}\\150\overline{)1200}\\\phantom{150)}\underline{\phantom{}1200\phantom{}}\\\phantom{150)9999}0\\\end{array}$$

Since $0$ is less than $150$, stop the division. The reminder is $0$. The topmost line $0008$ is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient $8$.

$$\text{Quotient: }8$$ $$\text{Reminder: }0$$
