  2. Chunking (division) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chunking_(division)

    To calculate the whole number quotient of dividing a large number by a small number, the student repeatedly takes away "chunks" of the large number, where each "chunk" is an easy multiple (for example 100×, 10×, 5× 2×, etc.) of the small number, until the large number has been reduced to zero – or the remainder is less than the small ...

  3. Casting out nines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casting_out_nines

    Adding the decimal digits of a positive whole number, while optionally ignoring any 9s or digits which sum to 9 or a multiple of 9. The result of this procedure is a number which is smaller than the original whenever the original has more than one digit, leaves the same remainder as the original after division by nine, and may be obtained from ...

    The symbols for elementary-level math operations. From top-left going clockwise: addition, division, multiplication, and subtraction. Elementary arithmetic is a branch of mathematics involving addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

  5. Long division - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_division

    If necessary, simplify the long division problem by moving the decimals of the divisor and dividend by the same number of decimal places, to the right (or to the left), so that the decimal of the divisor is to the right of the last digit. When doing long division, keep the numbers lined up straight from top to bottom under the tableau.

  6. Division (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Division_(mathematics)

    In abstract algebra, given a magma with binary operation ∗ (which could nominally be termed multiplication), left division of b by a (written a \ b) is typically defined as the solution x to the equation a ∗ x = b, if this exists and is unique. Similarly, right division of b by a (written b / a) is the solution y to the equation y ∗ a = b ...

    (b) Compute 6 − 5×1 = 1. Cross out the 6 of the dividend and above it write a 1. Cross out the 5 of the divisor. The resulting dividend is now read off as the topmost un-crossed digits: 15284. (c) Using the left-hand segment of the resulting dividend we get 15 − 9×1 = 6. Cross out the 1 and 5 and write 6 above. Cross out the 9.

  8. Fraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fraction

    To change a common fraction to decimal notation, do a long division of the numerator by the denominator (this is idiomatically also phrased as "divide the denominator into the numerator"), and round the result to the desired precision. For example, to change ⁠ 1 / 4 ⁠ to a decimal expression, divide 1 by 4 (" 4 into 1 "), to obtain exactly ...

  9. Euclidean division - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_division

    Here, the dividend is 17, the divisor is 3, the quotient is 5, and the remainder is 2 (which is strictly smaller than the divisor 3), or more symbolically, 17 = (3 × 5) + 2. In arithmetic, Euclidean division – or division with remainder – is the process of dividing one integer (the dividend) by another (the divisor), in a way that produces ...
