The dividend (the number being divided) is divided by the divisor (the number doing the dividing) and the quotient (the result of this division) is written down. The remainder (the number left over after the division is complete) is also written down.<\/p>\n<p>For example, to divide 142 by 5, the steps would be as follows:<\/p>\n<p>142 \u00f7 5 = 28.4<\/p>\n<p>Write down the quotient (28.4) and the remainder (2.6).<\/p>\n<p>142 \u00f7 5 = 28.4<\/p>\n<p>2.6<\/p>\n<p>The answer is 28.4 with a remainder of 2.6.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-154083 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/infinitylearn.com\/surge\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/long-division-to-decimal-places-explanation-steps-and-examples.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"606\" height=\"428\" srcset=\"https:\/\/infinitylearn.com\/surge\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/long-division-to-decimal-places-explanation-steps-and-examples.jpg?v=1648229906 606w, https:\/\/infinitylearn.com\/surge\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/long-division-to-decimal-places-explanation-steps-and-examples-300x212.jpg?v=1648229906 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 606px) 100vw, 606px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Long_Division_to_Decimal_Steps\"><\/span>Long Division to Decimal Steps<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To divide a number by 10, move the decimal point one place to the right. To divide a number by 100, move the decimal point two places to the right. To divide a number by 1000, move the decimal point three places to the right.<\/p>\n<p>For example, to divide the number 123 by 10, move the decimal point one place to the right, and the answer is 12.3. To divide the number 123 by 100, move the decimal point two places to the right, and the answer is 1.23. To divide the number 123 by 1000, move the decimal point three places to the right, and the answer is 0.123.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Long_Division_to_Decimal_When_Divisor_is_Not_a_Whole_Number\"><\/span>Long Division to Decimal When Divisor is Not a Whole Number<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>When the divisor is not a whole number, the long division process becomes a bit more complicated. To divide a number by a decimal, first divide the number by the whole number portion of the decimal and write the answer down. Then, divide the number by the decimal portion of the decimal and write the answer down. Keep doing this until you reach zero. The final answer is the sum of all the answers from dividing by the decimal portion of the decimal.<\/p>\n<p>Here is an example:<\/p>\n<p>Divide 9.56 by 0.5<\/p>\n<p>9.56 \/ 0.5 = 19.12<\/p>\n<p>19.12 \/ 0.5 = 38.24<\/p>\n<p>38.24 \/ 0.5 = 76.48<\/p>\n<p>76.48 \/ 0.5 = 153.96<\/p>\n<p>153.96 \/ 0.5 = 307.92<\/p>\n<p>307.92 \/ 0.5 = 615.84<\/p>\n<p>615.84 \/ 0.5 = 1231.68<\/p>\n<p>The final answer is 1231.68.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Long_Division_3_Examples_With_Solutions\"><\/span>Long Division 3 Examples With Solutions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Example 1:<\/p>\n<p>Divide 153 by 5<\/p>\n<p>153 \u00f7 5 = 30.6<\/p>\n<p>Example 2:<\/p>\n<p>Divide 153 by 3<\/p>\n<p>153 \u00f7 3 = 51<\/p>\n<p>Example 3:<\/p>\n<p>Divide 153 by 7<\/p>\n<p>153 \u00f7 7 = 21.9<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Points_to_Remember\"><\/span>Points to Remember<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>:<\/p>\n<p>1.
