Let's solve each of the long division problems step by step.
---
1) 6233 ÷ 23
We divide 6233 by 23.
Step 1: How many times does 23 go into 62?
→ 23 × 2 = 46
→ 23 × 3 = 69 (too big) → So, use
2
Write 2 above the 2 in 62.
Subtract: 62 - 46 = 16
Bring down next digit: 3 → makes 163
Step 2: How many times does 23 go into 163?
→ 23 × 7 = 161
→ 23 × 8 = 184 (too big) → So, use
7
Write 7 above the 3.
Subtract: 163 - 161 = 2
Bring down next digit: 3 → makes 23
Step 3: How many times does 23 go into 23?
→ 23 × 1 = 23 → So, use
1
Write 1 above the last 3.
Subtract: 23 - 23 = 0

2) 7692 ÷ 12
Divide 7692 by 12.
Step 1: How many times does 12 go into 76?
→ 12 × 6 = 72
→ 12 × 7 = 84 (too big) → So, use
6
Write 6 above the 6 in 76.
Subtract: 76 - 72 = 4
Bring down next digit: 9 → makes 49
Step 2: How many times does 12 go into 49?
→ 12 × 4 = 48
→ 12 × 5 = 60 (too big) → So, use
4
Write 4 above the 9.
Subtract: 49 - 48 = 1
Bring down next digit: 2 → makes 12
Step 3: How many times does 12 go into 12?
→ 12 × 1 = 12 → So, use
1
Write 1 above the 2.
Subtract: 12 - 12 = 0
✔ Answer: 641
