Long Division with Whole Numbers

Playback speed:
Six friends share $852 equally. How much does each friend get?

In this video

  • Share the $100 bills first, then trade what's left for $10 bills, then $1 bills.
  • Watch each money step turn into a step of long division.
  • See what “bring down” really means: trading leftovers for smaller bills.

Try it together

936 ÷ 4
Show the answer
234
9 ÷ 4 = 2 r1 → 13 ÷ 4 = 3 r1 → 16 ÷ 4 = 4. Estimate first: 900 ÷ 4 is about 225.

Ask, don't tell

“What do we do with what's left over?”

“Does your answer match your estimate?”
