Simple Long Division
Division is sometimes referred to as the opposite math operation of multiplication. For example: 40 ÷ 8 = 5. You can reverse this for multiplication:
5 x 8 = 40.
There are two definitions you must know in order to do division:
• The number to be divided into is known as the dividend
• The number which divides the other number is known as the divisor
Lets' work it out:
How many fives go into 5? 1
How many fives go into 0? 0
How many fives go into 5? 1
Your answer is: 101
The remainder is: 0

For example: 435 ÷ 25
