Question

$$\frac{46}{20}$$

Evaluate

$\frac{23}{10}=2.3$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the $1^{st}$ digit $4$ from dividend $46$

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{20)}\phantom{1}\\20\overline{)46}\\\end{array}$$

Since $4$ is less than $20$, use the next digit $6$ from dividend $46$ and add $0$ to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{20)}0\phantom{2}\\20\overline{)46}\\\end{array}$$

Use the $2^{nd}$ digit $6$ from dividend $46$

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{20)}0\phantom{3}\\20\overline{)46}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of $20$ to $46$. We see that $2 \times 20 = 40$ is the nearest. Now subtract $40$ from $46$ to get reminder $6$. Add $2$ to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{20)}02\phantom{4}\\20\overline{)46}\\\phantom{20)}\underline{\phantom{}40\phantom{}}\\\phantom{20)9}6\\\end{array}$$

Since $6$ is less than $20$, stop the division. The reminder is $6$. The topmost line $02$ is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient $2$.

$$\text{Quotient: }2$$ $$\text{Reminder: }6$$
