Example 3. Divide 697 by 3.
Solution. H T O

2 3 2 (Q)
3 6 9 7 Checking

– 6 (Quotient × Divisor) + Remainder = Dividend
0 9 232 × 3 + 1 = 697
– 9 696 + 1 = 697
0 7 697 = 697
– 6 Thus, the division is correct.

1 (R)

Thus, Q = 232, R = 1. Tips

Example 4. Divide 805 by 4.
Solution. H T O Since 0 tens is smaller than the divisor 4, we
put 0 in the quotient and we bring down the
2 0 1 (Q) next digit and then divide further.
4 8 0 5
– 8

0 0 5 Checking
– 4 (Quotient × Divisor) + Remainder = Dividend
1 (R) 201 × 4 + 1 = 805
804 + 1 = 805
Thus, Q = 201, R = 1. 805 = 805
Thus, the division is correct.
