Question

$$139\div14$$

Evaluate

$\frac{139}{14}\approx 9.928571429$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the $1^{st}$ digit $1$ from dividend $139$

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{14)}\phantom{1}\\14\overline{)139}\\\end{array}$$

Since $1$ is less than $14$, use the next digit $3$ from dividend $139$ and add $0$ to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{14)}0\phantom{2}\\14\overline{)139}\\\end{array}$$

Use the $2^{nd}$ digit $3$ from dividend $139$

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{14)}0\phantom{3}\\14\overline{)139}\\\end{array}$$

Since $13$ is less than $14$, use the next digit $9$ from dividend $139$ and add $0$ to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{14)}00\phantom{4}\\14\overline{)139}\\\end{array}$$

Use the $3^{rd}$ digit $9$ from dividend $139$

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{14)}00\phantom{5}\\14\overline{)139}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of $14$ to $139$. We see that $9 \times 14 = 126$ is the nearest. Now subtract $126$ from $139$ to get reminder $13$. Add $9$ to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{14)}009\phantom{6}\\14\overline{)139}\\\phantom{14)}\underline{\phantom{}126\phantom{}}\\\phantom{14)9}13\\\end{array}$$

Since $13$ is less than $14$, stop the division. The reminder is $13$. The topmost line $009$ is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient $9$.

$$\text{Quotient: }9$$ $$\text{Reminder: }13$$
