Let’s solve the long division problems shown in the worksheet.
We are given three long division problems:
1. 2,360 ÷ 5
2. 2,559 3
3. 2,112 ÷ 4
We’ll solve each one step by step.

Problem 1: 2,360 ÷ 5
Step 1: Divide 23 (first two digits) by 5 → 5 × 4 = 20 → write 4 above the 3.
Subtract: 23 - 20 = 3
Bring down next digit: 6 → makes 36
Step 2: 36 ÷ 5 → 5 × 7 = 35 → write 7 above the 6
Subtract: 36 - 35 = 1
Bring down next digit: 0 → makes 10
Step 3: 10 ÷ 5 = 2 → write 2 above the 0
Subtract: 10 - 10 = 0
Answer:
472
Check: 472 × 5 = 2,360

Problem 2: 2,559 ÷ 3
Step 1: 2 ÷ 3 → too small, so take 25
25 ÷ 3 → 3 × 8 = 24 → write 8 above the 5 (tens place of 25)
Subtract: 25 - 24 = 1
Bring down next digit: 5 → makes 15
Step 2: 15 ÷ 3 = 5 → write 5 above the next 5
Subtract: 15 - 15 = 0
Bring down next digit: 9
Step 3: 9 ÷ 3 = 3 → write 3 above the 9
Subtract: 9 - 9 = 0
Answer:
853
Check: 853 × 3 = 2,559

Problem 3: 2,112 ÷ 4
Step 1: 2 ÷ 4 → too small, take 21
21 ÷ 4 → 4 × 5 = 20 → write 5 above the 1 (in hundreds place)
Subtract: 21 - 20 = 1
Bring down next digit: 1 → makes 11
Step 2: 11 4 → 4 × 2 = 8 → write 2 above the next 1
Subtract: 11 - 8 = 3
Bring down next digit: 2 → makes 32
Step 3: 32 ÷ 4 = 8 → write 8 above the last 2
Subtract: 32 - 32 = 0
Answer:
528
Check: 528 × 4 = 2,112

Final Answer:
2,360 ÷ 5 = 472
2,559 ÷ 3 = 853
2,112 ÷ 4 = 528
