Question

$$\frac{61}{36}$$

Evaluate

$\frac{61}{36}\approx 1.694444444$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the $1^{st}$ digit $6$ from dividend $61$

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{36)}\phantom{1}\\36\overline{)61}\\\end{array}$$

Since $6$ is less than $36$, use the next digit $1$ from dividend $61$ and add $0$ to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{36)}0\phantom{2}\\36\overline{)61}\\\end{array}$$

Use the $2^{nd}$ digit $1$ from dividend $61$

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{36)}0\phantom{3}\\36\overline{)61}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of $36$ to $61$. We see that $1 \times 36 = 36$ is the nearest. Now subtract $36$ from $61$ to get reminder $25$. Add $1$ to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{36)}01\phantom{4}\\36\overline{)61}\\\phantom{36)}\underline{\phantom{}36\phantom{}}\\\phantom{36)}25\\\end{array}$$

Since $25$ is less than $36$, stop the division. The reminder is $25$. The topmost line $01$ is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient $1$.

$$\text{Quotient: }1$$ $$\text{Reminder: }25$$
