Question

$$\frac{ 148 }{ 39 }$$

Evaluate

$\frac{148}{39}\approx 3.794871795$

Steps For Long Division Method

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

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{39)}\phantom{1}\\39\overline{)148}\\\end{array}$$

Since $1$ is less than $39$, use the next digit $4$ from dividend $148$ and add $0$ to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{39)}0\phantom{2}\\39\overline{)148}\\\end{array}$$

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

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{39)}0\phantom{3}\\39\overline{)148}\\\end{array}$$

Since $14$ is less than $39$, use the next digit $8$ from dividend $148$ and add $0$ to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{39)}00\phantom{4}\\39\overline{)148}\\\end{array}$$

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

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{39)}00\phantom{5}\\39\overline{)148}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of $39$ to $148$. We see that $3 \times 39 = 117$ is the nearest. Now subtract $117$ from $148$ to get reminder $31$. Add $3$ to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{39)}003\phantom{6}\\39\overline{)148}\\\phantom{39)}\underline{\phantom{}117\phantom{}}\\\phantom{39)9}31\\\end{array}$$

Since $31$ is less than $39$, stop the division. The reminder is $31$. The topmost line $003$ is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient $3$.

$$\text{Quotient: }3$$ $$\text{Reminder: }31$$
