How to solve (850)/(100)

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

$$\frac{ 850 }{ 100 }$$

Evaluate

$\frac{17}{2}=8.5$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the $1^{st}$ digit $8$ from dividend $850$

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{100)}\phantom{1}\\100\overline{)850}\\\end{array}$$

Since $8$ is less than $100$, use the next digit $5$ from dividend $850$ and add $0$ to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{100)}0\phantom{2}\\100\overline{)850}\\\end{array}$$

Use the $2^{nd}$ digit $5$ from dividend $850$

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{100)}0\phantom{3}\\100\overline{)850}\\\end{array}$$

Since $85$ is less than $100$, use the next digit $0$ from dividend $850$ and add $0$ to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{100)}00\phantom{4}\\100\overline{)850}\\\end{array}$$

Use the $3^{rd}$ digit $0$ from dividend $850$

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{100)}00\phantom{5}\\100\overline{)850}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of $100$ to $850$. We see that $8 \times 100 = 800$ is the nearest. Now subtract $800$ from $850$ to get reminder $50$. Add $8$ to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{100)}008\phantom{6}\\100\overline{)850}\\\phantom{100)}\underline{\phantom{}800\phantom{}}\\\phantom{100)9}50\\\end{array}$$

Since $50$ is less than $100$, stop the division. The reminder is $50$. The topmost line $008$ is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient $8$.

$$\text{Quotient: }8$$ $$\text{Reminder: }50$$
