Question

$$\frac{ 345 }{ 139 }$$

Evaluate

$\frac{345}{139}\approx 2.482014388$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the $1^{st}$ digit $3$ from dividend $345$

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{139)}\phantom{1}\\139\overline{)345}\\\end{array}$$

Since $3$ is less than $139$, use the next digit $4$ from dividend $345$ and add $0$ to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{139)}0\phantom{2}\\139\overline{)345}\\\end{array}$$

Use the $2^{nd}$ digit $4$ from dividend $345$

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{139)}0\phantom{3}\\139\overline{)345}\\\end{array}$$

Since $34$ is less than $139$, use the next digit $5$ from dividend $345$ and add $0$ to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{139)}00\phantom{4}\\139\overline{)345}\\\end{array}$$

Use the $3^{rd}$ digit $5$ from dividend $345$

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{139)}00\phantom{5}\\139\overline{)345}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of $139$ to $345$. We see that $2 \times 139 = 278$ is the nearest. Now subtract $278$ from $345$ to get reminder $67$. Add $2$ to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{139)}002\phantom{6}\\139\overline{)345}\\\phantom{139)}\underline{\phantom{}278\phantom{}}\\\phantom{139)9}67\\\end{array}$$

Since $67$ is less than $139$, stop the division. The reminder is $67$. The topmost line $002$ is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient $2$.

$$\text{Quotient: }2$$ $$\text{Reminder: }67$$
