Here are the step-by-step workings for each division problem to find the quotient and the remainder.
1. $745 \div 6$
*
Step 1: Look at the first digit, 7. How many times does 6 go into 7? It goes in
1 time.
* $1 \times 6 = 6$.
* Subtract: $7 - 6 = 1$.
*
Step 2: Bring down the next digit, 4, to make 14. How many times does 6 go into 14? It goes in
2 times.
* $2 \times 6 = 12$.
* Subtract: $14 - 12 = 2$.
*
Step 3: Bring down the last digit, 5, to make 25. How many times does 6 go into 25? It goes in
4 times.
* $4 \times 6 = 24$.
* Subtract: $25 - 24 = 1$.
*
Result: The answer is 124 with a remainder of 1.
2. $953 \div 3$
*
Step 1: Look at the first digit, 9. How many times does 3 go into 9? It goes in
3 times.
* $3 \times 3 = 9$.
* Subtract: $9 - 9 = 0$.
*
Step 2: Bring down the next digit, 5. How many times does 3 go into 5? It goes in
1 time.
* $1 \times 3 = 3$.
* Subtract: $5 - 3 = 2$.
*
Step 3: Bring down the last digit, 3, to make 23. How many times does 3 go into 23? It goes in
7 times.
* $7 \times 3 = 21$.
* Subtract: $23 - 21 = 2$.
*
Result: The answer is 317 with a remainder of 2.
3. $373 \div 8$
*
Step 1: Look at the first digit, 3. 8 cannot go into 3, so look at the first two digits, 37. How many times does 8 go into 37? It goes in
4 times.
* $4 \times 8 = 32$.
* Subtract: $37 - 32 = 5$.
*
Step 2: Bring down the last digit, 3, to make 53. How many times does 8 go into 53? It goes in
6 times.
* $6 \times 8 = 48$.
* Subtract: $53 - 48 = 5$.
*
Result: The answer is 46 with a remainder of 5.
