How to do long division with 2 digit divisor

Introduction of division with 2 digit divisor:

          In mathematics, especially in elementary arithmetic, division (÷) is the arithmetic operation that is the inverse of multiplication.

Specifically, if c time’s b equals a, written:

           c x b = a

Where b is not zero, then a divided by b equals c, written:

            = c.

In the above expression, a is called the dividend.

Step by Step Process of Division with 2 Digit Divisor

In following steps for division with 2 digit divisor 100 by 12

Step 1:-

        -------
  12 | 100

       In the above equation 12 is divisor and 100 is dividend. In the divisor has two decimal numbers put the value dividend of 10.

Step 2:-

          8 
        --------
  12 | 100
             96
         --------
              4

      Normally divide the values one by one .The first dividend value is less than from divisor value. So directly divided by three digits. In 12 x 8 = 96 the divisor number 12 is multiplied with 8 to get an answer 96.In 96 is less than from 100. So use the values then subtracts the value and get remainder is 4.

Step 3:-
         
         8.3
       -------
12  | 100
           96
       --------
            40

            36
       ---------
               4

         The value 4 has no more value in the right side. So put 0 to get 40 and put decimal point on the quotient. Then normal dividing 12 x 3= 36 the divisor number 12 is multiplied with 3 to get an answer 36. In 36 is less than from 40.So use the value then subtract the value we get 4.

Step 4:-

         
         8.33 
        ---------
  12 | 100
            96
         --------
             40
             36
       ---------
               40
               36
          ----------
                  4 (Continued)

         The value 4 has no more value in the right side. So put 0 to get 40 and put decimal point on the quotient. Then normal dividing 12 x 3= 36 the divisor number 12 is multiplied with 3 to get an answer 36. In 36 is less than from 40.So use the value then subtract the value we get 4.

Example Problem for Division with 2 Digit Divisor

Division with 2 digit divisor 120 by 20

         6
        -------
  20 | 120
          120
        --------
            0
         --------
Solution :

In following steps for how to solve 120 divided by 20

Step 1:-

    In the above equation 20 is divisor and 120 is dividend. In the divisor has two decimal numbers put the value dividend of 20.

Step 2:-

    Normally divide the values one by one .The first dividend value is less than from divisor value. So directly divided by three digits. In 20 x 6 = 120 the divisor number 20 is multiplied with 6 to get an answer 120.In 120 is equal to 120. So use the values then subtracts the value and get remainder is 0.
