Division of a four-digit number by a two-digit number

Example:

Find the quotient and remainder when 8670 is divided by 15.

The division is carried out from left to right as shown in the following steps.
Division Steps 15 times table

ThHTO Step 1: The number formed by the first two digits is 86. 15x1 = 15

5
Since 86 > 15, divide 86 by 15. Write the 15 times table 15x2 30
15) 8670
till you get the product just less than or equal to 86. 15x3 = 45
-75
15x5 75 < 86 15 x 4 60
11
15 x 6 90> 86 15x5 7 5
Write 5 in the H column of the quotient and 75 15 x 6 90
below 86 and subtract.
Th HTO Step 2: Bring down the next digit, 7. The number 15 x6 90
578
formed is 117. Divide 117 by 15. 15x7= 105
15 8670 15 x 7 105< 117
-75 117
15 x 8 = 120> 117

Write 7 in the T column of quotient and 105 below

- 105
117 and subtract. You get 12.
120
- 120
Step 3: Bring down the last digit which is 0. 15 x8 120
The number formed is 120.
15x8 120. 15 divides 120 eight times.
Write 8 in the O column of the quotient and write 120
below 120 and subtract.
The quotient is 570 and the remainder is 0.

Example:
Divide 9753 by 47.
Division Steps 47 times table

Th HTO 1: The number formed by the first two digits is 97. 47 x1= 47

Step
Since 97> 47, divide 97 by47. Write the 47 times table 47 x 2 94
47)9753 till you get the product just less than or equal to 97. 47 x 3 141
-94 47 x 2 94 < 97
47 x 3= 14l> 97
Write 2 in the H column of the quotient and 94
below 97 and subtract.

125
 ThHTO 47 x4
207 Step 2: Bring down the next digit, 5. The number 188
formed is 35. Since 35<47, itis not possible to divide 47 5
47) 975,3 x
235
94 35 by 47. So, write 0 in the T column and bring down 47 x 6 282

7 329
3 29 353 47 47 x8 =376

47 x 7329< 353 47 x
9= 423
24
47 x 8 376> 353
Write 7 in the O column of the quotient and write 329
below 353 and subtract.
Note that the remainder 24 is less than the divisor 38.
The quotient is 207 and the remainder is 24.

Step 2: Bring down the next digit 1. The number formed is 151.
151 > 64. We have, 64 x 2 = 128. Write 2 in the T column of the
64) 39912
- 3 84 quotient and write 128 below 151l and subtract.
151 Step 3: Bring down the next digit 2. The number formed is 232.
-128 64 x 3 = 192
232
Write 3 in the O column of the quotient and write 192 below 232 and
-192
subtract. The number 40 is less than the divisor 64.

Maths Lab Activity

Objective: o review multiplication facts for a given division sum and gain
understanding of a quick method of checking the working of division and
multiplication sums
Materials Required: Worksheet (sample worksheet given on page 133)
Method: The teacher explains the concept of digit sum with some examples.
Students complete the worksheet. Students may be encouraged to work in pairs.
Consider the four-digit number 5908. The digit sum of the number is 4. This is
obtained by adding the digits 5 +9 +0 +8 = 22 and again 2 +2 = 4

The digit sum of 37792 1, because 3 +7+7+9+ 2 =28,2 +8 =10, 1+ 0 1.

The digit sum can be used to check the working of any addition, multiplication,
or division sum.
