Question

$$188/63$$

Evaluate

$\frac{188}{63}\approx 2.984126984$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the $1^{st}$ digit $1$ from dividend $188$

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{63)}\phantom{1}\\63\overline{)188}\\\end{array}$$

Since $1$ is less than $63$, use the next digit $8$ from dividend $188$ and add $0$ to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{63)}0\phantom{2}\\63\overline{)188}\\\end{array}$$

Use the $2^{nd}$ digit $8$ from dividend $188$

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{63)}0\phantom{3}\\63\overline{)188}\\\end{array}$$

Since $18$ is less than $63$, use the next digit $8$ from dividend $188$ and add $0$ to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{63)}00\phantom{4}\\63\overline{)188}\\\end{array}$$

Use the $3^{rd}$ digit $8$ from dividend $188$

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{63)}00\phantom{5}\\63\overline{)188}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of $63$ to $188$. We see that $2 \times 63 = 126$ is the nearest. Now subtract $126$ from $188$ to get reminder $62$. Add $2$ to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{63)}002\phantom{6}\\63\overline{)188}\\\phantom{63)}\underline{\phantom{}126\phantom{}}\\\phantom{63)9}62\\\end{array}$$

Since $62$ is less than $63$, stop the division. The reminder is $62$. The topmost line $002$ is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient $2$.

$$\text{Quotient: }2$$ $$\text{Reminder: }62$$
