How to solve (99)/(45)

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

$$\frac{ 99 }{ 45 }$$

Evaluate

$\frac{11}{5}=2.2$

Steps For Long Division Method

Use the $1^{st}$ digit $9$ from dividend $99$

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{45)}\phantom{1}\\45\overline{)99}\\\end{array}$$

Since $9$ is less than $45$, use the next digit $9$ from dividend $99$ and add $0$ to the quotient

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{45)}0\phantom{2}\\45\overline{)99}\\\end{array}$$

Use the $2^{nd}$ digit $9$ from dividend $99$

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{45)}0\phantom{3}\\45\overline{)99}\\\end{array}$$

Find closest multiple of $45$ to $99$. We see that $2 \times 45 = 90$ is the nearest. Now subtract $90$ from $99$ to get reminder $9$. Add $2$ to quotient.

$$\begin{array}{l}\phantom{45)}02\phantom{4}\\45\overline{)99}\\\phantom{45)}\underline{\phantom{}90\phantom{}}\\\phantom{45)9}9\\\end{array}$$

Since $9$ is less than $45$, stop the division. The reminder is $9$. The topmost line $02$ is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient $2$.

$$\text{Quotient: }2$$ $$\text{Reminder: }9$$
