Question

$$\frac{22}{12}$$

Evaluate

$\frac{11}{6}\approx 1.833333333$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the $1^{st}$ digit $2$ from dividend $22$

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{12)}\phantom{1}\\12\overline{)22}\\\end{array}$$

Since $2$ is less than $12$, use the next digit $2$ from dividend $22$ and add $0$ to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{12)}0\phantom{2}\\12\overline{)22}\\\end{array}$$

Use the $2^{nd}$ digit $2$ from dividend $22$

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{12)}0\phantom{3}\\12\overline{)22}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of $12$ to $22$. We see that $1 \times 12 = 12$ is the nearest. Now subtract $12$ from $22$ to get reminder $10$. Add $1$ to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{12)}01\phantom{4}\\12\overline{)22}\\\phantom{12)}\underline{\phantom{}12\phantom{}}\\\phantom{12)}10\\\end{array}$$

Since $10$ is less than $12$, stop the division. The reminder is $10$. The topmost line $01$ is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient $1$.

$$\text{Quotient: }1$$ $$\text{Reminder: }10$$
