Divide 726 ÷ 2

Draw the division symbol ⟌ and write divisor 2 is on left side and dividend 726 enclosed under this symbol.

$1a$

Explanation: Arrange the numbers in division form.

Step 1b

7 is not divisible by 2 but since, \$3 times 2 = 6\$.we go for it subtract 7 - 6 = 1 and write 3 in first quotient.

$1b$

Explanation: Bring down the next value 2, the 12 is divisible by 2, since \$6 times 2 = 12\$. we go for it subtract 12 - 12 = 0.

Step 1c

Write the second quotient 6. Now bring down the next value 6.

$1c$

Explanation: The 6 is divisible by 2. since, \$3 times 2 = 6\$. we go for it, subtract 6 - 6 = 0.

Step 1d

Write the third quotient 3.

$1d$
