Question

$$\frac{52}{31}$$

Evaluate

$\frac{52}{31}\approx 1.677419355$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the $1^{st}$ digit $5$ from dividend $52$

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{31)}\phantom{1}\\31\overline{)52}\\\end{array}$$

Since $5$ is less than $31$, use the next digit $2$ from dividend $52$ and add $0$ to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{31)}0\phantom{2}\\31\overline{)52}\\\end{array}$$

Use the $2^{nd}$ digit $2$ from dividend $52$

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{31)}0\phantom{3}\\31\overline{)52}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of $31$ to $52$. We see that $1 \times 31 = 31$ is the nearest. Now subtract $31$ from $52$ to get reminder $21$. Add $1$ to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{31)}01\phantom{4}\\31\overline{)52}\\\phantom{31)}\underline{\phantom{}31\phantom{}}\\\phantom{31)}21\\\end{array}$$

Since $21$ is less than $31$, stop the division. The reminder is $21$. The topmost line $01$ is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient $1$.

$$\text{Quotient: }1$$ $$\text{Reminder: }21$$
