How to solve 72 30 )^ 2

1. Factor the equation (x + 2)(x + 3) = 0. 2. Set each factor equal to zero: x + 2 = 0 and x + 3 = 0. 3. Solve for x: x = -2 and x = -3.

Question

$$\frac{72}{30})^{2}$$

Evaluate

$\frac{12}{5}=2.4$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the $1^{st}$ digit $7$ from dividend $72$

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{30)}\phantom{1}\\30\overline{)72}\\\end{array}$$

Since $7$ is less than $30$, use the next digit $2$ from dividend $72$ and add $0$ to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{30)}0\phantom{2}\\30\overline{)72}\\\end{array}$$

Use the $2^{nd}$ digit $2$ from dividend $72$

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{30)}0\phantom{3}\\30\overline{)72}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of $30$ to $72$. We see that $2 \times 30 = 60$ is the nearest. Now subtract $60$ from $72$ to get reminder $12$. Add $2$ to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{30)}02\phantom{4}\\30\overline{)72}\\\phantom{30)}\underline{\phantom{}60\phantom{}}\\\phantom{30)}12\\\end{array}$$

Since $12$ is less than $30$, stop the division. The reminder is $12$. The topmost line $02$ is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient $2$.

$$\text{Quotient: }2$$ $$\text{Reminder: }12$$
