How do you do long division list the steps

Mathematics
1 answer:
Westkost [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

PART 1

1. Set up the equation. On a piece of paper, write the dividend (number being divided) on the right, under the division symbol, and the divisor (number doing the division) to the left on the outside

2. Divide the first digit. Working from left to right, determine how many times the divisor can go into the first digit of the dividend without exceeding it.

3. Divide the first two digits. If the divisor is a larger number than the first digit, determine how many times the divisor goes into the first two digits of the dividend without exceeding it.

4.  Enter the first digit of the quotient. Put the number of times the divisor goes into the first digit (or digits) of the dividend above the appropriate digit(s)

PART 2

1. Multiply the divisor. The divisor should be multiplied by the number you have just written above the dividend. In our example, this is the first digit of the quotient.

2. Record the product. Put the result of your multiplication in step 1 beneath the dividend.

3.  Draw a line. A line should be placed beneath the product of your multiplication, 24 in the example

PART 3

1. Subtract the product. Subtract the number you just wrote below the dividend from the digits of the dividend directly above it. Write the result beneath the line you just drew.

2. Bring down the next digit. Write the next digit of the dividend after the result of your subtraction operation.

3. Repeat the whole process. Divide the new number by your divisor, and write the result above the dividend as the next digit of the quotient.

PART 4

1. Record the remainder. Depending on what you're using this division for, you may want to finish up with a quotient that's a whole number, with a remainder, i.e. an indication of how much is left over after you've completed your division.

2.  Add a decimal point. If you are planning to calculate a precise answer rather than one with a remainder, you'll now need to move beyond whole numbers. When you've reached a point at which you are left with a number smaller than your divisor, add a decimal point to both the quotient and the dividend.

3. Keep repeating. Now you have more digits that can be brought down (all of them zeroes). Bring down a zero and continue as before, determining how many times the divisor can go into the new number.

4. Stop and round. In some cases, you will find that when you start to solve for the decimal, the answer repeats over and over. At this point, it's time to stop and round your answer up (if the repeating number is 5 or greater) or down (if it is 4 or less).

5. Add the unit back to your answer. If you are working with units like pounds, gallons, or degrees, once you are done with all your calculations, add the unit to the end of your answer.

HOPE THIS HELPED!!!!!!XDDD

Find the equation of a line parallel to y=2x-4 that contains the points (5,1)
Alex73 [517]
The correct answer is
y=2x-9

Since the lines are parallel, they will gave the same slope (in this case it’s 2)

Our equation will be
y=mx+b

We know the slope is 2, and they’ve given us x and y coordinates. Plugging it in to the slope equation we get

1=2(5)+b

1=10+b

Subtract 10 from both sides and you get

-9=b

Putting it together our new parallel line will be

y = 2x - 9
