Long Division – The Bus Stop Method

Here we’re going to use the bus stop method.

$14$ goes into $3$ zero times, so we write a zero above the line and a small $3$ – the remainder – in between the $3$ and the $1$. Then, we see how many times $14$ goes into $31$, writing the result above the line and the remainder just before the next digit of the dividend.

Repeat this process until you get the complete answer, which looks like,

$;;;;;0;2;2;.;5\14overline{left)3{}^31{}^35.{}^70right.}$

Here we’re going to use the bus stop method,

$15$ goes into $2$ zero times, so we write a zero above the line and a small $2$ – the remainder – in between the $2$ and the $2$. Then, we see how many times $15$ goes into $22$, which is $1$,  writing the result above the line and the remainder, $7$,  just before the next digit of the dividend.

Repeat this process until you get the complete answer, which looks like,

$;;;;;0;1;5\15overline{left)2{}^22{}^75right.}$

Here we’re going to use the bus stop method,

$160$ goes into $4$ zero times, so we write a zero above the line and a small $4$ – the remainder – in between the $4$ and the $3$. Then, we see how many times $160$ goes into $43$, which is also zero,  writing the result above the line and the remainder, $43$,  just before the next digit of the dividend.

Repeat this process until you get the complete answer, which looks like,

$;;;;;;;0;;0;;2;;7\160overline{left)4{}^43{}^{43}2{}^{112}0right.}$

Here we’re going to use the bus stop method,

$13$ goes into $2$ zero times, so we write a zero above the line and a small $2$ – the remainder – in between the $2$ and the $9$. Then, we see how many times $13$ goes into $29$, which is $2$,  writing the result above the line and the remainder, $3$,  just before the next digit of the dividend.

Repeat this process until you get the complete answer, which looks like,

$;;;;0;2;3\13overline{left)2{}^29{}^39right.}$

Here we’re going to use the bus stop method,

$9$ goes into $2$ zero times, so we write a zero above the line and a small $2$ – the remainder – in between the $2$ and the $3$. Then, we see how many times $9$ goes into $23$, which is $2$, writing the result above the line and the remainder, $5$, just before the next digit of the dividend, so we find,

$;;;0;2;6\9overline{left)2{}^23{}^54right.}\;;;;;;;;$
