Question

$$124 \div 31=$$

Evaluate

$4$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the $1^{st}$ digit $1$ from dividend $124$

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{31)}\phantom{1}\\31\overline{)124}\\\end{array}$$

Since $1$ is less than $31$, use the next digit $2$ from dividend $124$ and add $0$ to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{31)}0\phantom{2}\\31\overline{)124}\\\end{array}$$

Use the $2^{nd}$ digit $2$ from dividend $124$

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{31)}0\phantom{3}\\31\overline{)124}\\\end{array}$$

Since $12$ is less than $31$, use the next digit $4$ from dividend $124$ and add $0$ to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{31)}00\phantom{4}\\31\overline{)124}\\\end{array}$$

Use the $3^{rd}$ digit $4$ from dividend $124$

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{31)}00\phantom{5}\\31\overline{)124}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of $31$ to $124$. We see that $4 \times 31 = 124$ is the nearest. Now subtract $124$ from $124$ to get reminder $0$. Add $4$ to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{31)}004\phantom{6}\\31\overline{)124}\\\phantom{31)}\underline{\phantom{}124\phantom{}}\\\phantom{31)999}0\\\end{array}$$

Since $0$ is less than $31$, stop the division. The reminder is $0$. The topmost line $004$ is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient $4$.

$$\text{Quotient: }4$$ $$\text{Reminder: }0$$
