Checking: Quotient × Divisor + Remainder = 11888 × 7 + 2 = 83218 = Dividend

Hence, the answer is correct.
short Division method

Let us divide 4276 by 5.
After fluency in addition, subtraction and multiplication, we use it mentally in short

division method.
Step 1: Since 4 < 5, so, divide 42 by 5. 5 42 7 6
2 2
Q = 8 and R = 2 8 5 5 R 1

Write 8 below 42 and 2 just above and before 7.
Step 2: Regroup remainder 2 with 7 as 27, and divide 27 by 5.

Q = 5 and R = 2

Write 5 below 7 and 2 just above and before 6.

Step 3: Regroup remainder 2 with 6 as 26, and divide 26 by 5.
Q = 5 and R = 1 Note
Short division method will
Write 5 below 6 and 1 as the final remainder. help you later while doing

Thus, final Q = 855 and R = 1 prime factorisation.

Quick Check
divide by using the short division method:

1. 6 3726 2. 8 5056 3. 9 88204

Division when there are Zeros in the Dividend

Zeros in the dividend should be treated just like other digits. Bring down the zero in
division steps as we “bring down” the other digit.

example 4: Divide 90090 by 9.

Solution: Step 1: Divide the ten thousands digit 9 by 9.
We have, quotient (Q) = 1 ten thousand and remainder (R) = 0

Step 2: Bring down the thousands digit 0.

Since, 0 < 9, put a ‘0’ in the quotient Divisor 9 90090 10010 Q
at thousands place. 9

Step 3: Bring down the hundreds digit 0. 0009
9
Since, it is also ‘0’, so again put a ‘0’ 00 Remainder
in the quotient at hundreds place.
