Donuts Make Students Bright How to divide BIG numbers
VOCABULARY QUOTIENT DIVISOR DIVIDEND
When dividing big numbers remember that…. • Donuts divide • Make multiply • Students subtract • BRight bring-down/ remainder
Divide this…. 3 685
D 2 3685 6 / 3 = 2
M 2 3 685 6 2 x 3 = 6
S 2 3 685 -6 0 6 – 6 = 0
Br 2 3 685 -6 08
After you bring down, you start the donut process all over again.
D 22 3 685 -6 08 new dividend 8 / 3 = 2 r2
M 22 3 685 -6 08 6 2 x 3 = 6
S 22 3 685 -6 08 -6 2 8 – 6 = 2
Br 22 3 685 -6 08 -6 25
D 228 3 685 -6 08 -6 25 new dividend 25 / 3 = 8 r1
M 228 3 685 -6 08 -6 25 24 8 x 3 = 24
S 228 3 685 -6 08 -6 25 - 24 1 25 – 24 = 1
Br228 3 685 -6 08 -6 25 - 24 1 There isn’t another number to bring down. The number left is less than the divisor. So, the one becomes a remainder.
Br228 r1 3 685 -6 08 -6 25 - 24 1 And you are done.
How can you check your answer? Multiply the quotient by the divisor, then add in the remainder. It should add up to the dividend.
