Explaining long division thru step by step example

The divider at this example is 3, and the divided is 822

A)

We start long division at the left digit of the divided number (8). Since 8 is bigger then the

 3

divider number (3), we look for the closest yet smaller or equal number to 8, that divide itself by 3, that number in this case is 6.

B)

We write 6 under the 8 digit

 3

C)

Since 6 divided by 3 equals to 2, we write 2 above the 8 digit.

 3

D)

Now we subtract 6 from 8, and write the results (2) under the number 6

 3

E)

Now we move down the digit next to 8 (2) to the subtract results line, we got 22

 3

F)

The closest smaller number to 22 that can be divided by 3 is 21, so we write 21 beneath 22. Since

 3

21 divided by 3 is 7, we write 7 right next to the 2 above

G)

We subtract 21 from 22, got 1. Now download the next digit (2) just next to the 1

 3

Now we got 12

H)

The closest number that can be divided by 3 to 12, is 12 itself. Since 12 divided by 3 is 4, We

 3

Since there are no more digits to move down the exercise is done, the results is the number above: 274
