How long division is structured

Long division breaks a large division into a sequence of smaller ones, working one digit of the dividend at a time from left to right. It works for whole numbers and decimals alike.

The four repeating steps

Each cycle has four moves — divide, multiply, subtract, bring down — repeated until every digit is used. The calculator shows the full scaffold so you can follow along or check your own work.

Frequently asked questions

1

What are the steps of long division?

Set up dividend ÷ divisor. Divide, multiply to find how much of the dividend you covered, subtract to find the remainder, then bring down the next digit and repeat.

2

How do I handle a remainder?

When the division does not finish, the leftover is the remainder. It can be written as a whole-number remainder, a fraction (remainder over divisor), or a decimal.
