Understanding Division

Division by 10, 100, and 1000

3

Long Division with 2-Digit and 3-Digit Divisors

  • For 2-digit divisors, start by dividing the first 2 or 3 digits of the dividend.
  • Use trial quotient: divide the first digit(s) of dividend by first digit of divisor.
  • Always multiply and subtract to find remainder at each step.
