How do you do 5th grade division?

Answer 1

To perform 5th grade division, start by setting up the problem with the dividend (the number being divided) inside the division bracket and the divisor (the number you are dividing by) outside. Use long division by estimating how many times the divisor fits into the leading part of the dividend, then multiply and subtract to find the remainder. Bring down the next digit and repeat the process until all digits have been used. Finally, express the answer as a quotient, and if there’s a remainder, you can either leave it as is or convert it into a decimal or fraction.
