Title: Division

Grade: 4-a Lesson: S4-L8

Explanation: The best way to understand divisions is by looking at some examples. Take turns and read each example for easy understanding.

Examples:

Divide 899 ÷ 19

Step 1a

Divide 899 ÷ 19

Draw the division symbol ⟌ and write divisor 19 is on left side and dividend 899 enclosed under this symbol.

$1a$

Explanation: Arrange the numbers in division form.

Step 1b

We have to take the second digit value also because 8 < 19 now the value is 89.

$1b$

Explanation: 89 is not divisible by 19 but since we know that \$4 times 19 = 76\$. we go for it subtract 89 - 76 = 13. write the 4 in first quotient.

Step 1c

Bring down the next value 9. Here the value is 139.

$1c$

Explanation: 139 is not divisible by 19 but since we know that \$7 times 19 = 133\$. we go for it subtract 139 - 133 = 6 and write 7 in second quotient.

Step 1d

Therefore the quotient = 47 and the remainder is 6.

$1d$

Explanation: So quotient = 47 and the remainder is 6.
