Question

$$\frac{ 148 }{ 34 }$$

Evaluate

$\frac{74}{17}\approx 4.352941176$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the $1^{st}$ digit $1$ from dividend $148$

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{34)}\phantom{1}\\34\overline{)148}\\\end{array}$$

Since $1$ is less than $34$, use the next digit $4$ from dividend $148$ and add $0$ to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{34)}0\phantom{2}\\34\overline{)148}\\\end{array}$$

Use the $2^{nd}$ digit $4$ from dividend $148$

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{34)}0\phantom{3}\\34\overline{)148}\\\end{array}$$

Since $14$ is less than $34$, use the next digit $8$ from dividend $148$ and add $0$ to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{34)}00\phantom{4}\\34\overline{)148}\\\end{array}$$

Use the $3^{rd}$ digit $8$ from dividend $148$

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{34)}00\phantom{5}\\34\overline{)148}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of $34$ to $148$. We see that $4 \times 34 = 136$ is the nearest. Now subtract $136$ from $148$ to get reminder $12$. Add $4$ to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{34)}004\phantom{6}\\34\overline{)148}\\\phantom{34)}\underline{\phantom{}136\phantom{}}\\\phantom{34)9}12\\\end{array}$$

Since $12$ is less than $34$, stop the division. The reminder is $12$. The topmost line $004$ is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient $4$.

$$\text{Quotient: }4$$ $$\text{Reminder: }12$$
