Question

$$\frac{ 148 }{ 36 }$$

Evaluate

$\frac{37}{9}\approx 4.111111111$

Steps For Long Division Method

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

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{36)}\phantom{1}\\36\overline{)148}\\\end{array}$$

Since $1$ is less than $36$, use the next digit $4$ from dividend $148$ and add $0$ to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{36)}0\phantom{2}\\36\overline{)148}\\\end{array}$$

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

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{36)}0\phantom{3}\\36\overline{)148}\\\end{array}$$

Since $14$ is less than $36$, use the next digit $8$ from dividend $148$ and add $0$ to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{36)}00\phantom{4}\\36\overline{)148}\\\end{array}$$

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

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{36)}00\phantom{5}\\36\overline{)148}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of $36$ to $148$. We see that $4 \times 36 = 144$ is the nearest. Now subtract $144$ from $148$ to get reminder $4$. Add $4$ to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{36)}004\phantom{6}\\36\overline{)148}\\\phantom{36)}\underline{\phantom{}144\phantom{}}\\\phantom{36)99}4\\\end{array}$$

Since $4$ is less than $36$, stop the division. The reminder is $4$. The topmost line $004$ is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient $4$.

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