Worked examples

Real problems from the practice worksheets, solved one step at a time.

1. Example 1

   864 ÷ 9 = ?

   1. Use the partial quotients method.
   2. How many 9s can you subtract from 864?
   3. 9 × 50 = 450
   4. 9 × 20 = 180
   5. 9 × 20 = 180
   6. 9 × 5 = 45
   7. 9 × 1 = 9
   8. Add the quotients: 50 + 20 + 20 + 5 + 1 = 96
   9. 864 ÷ 9 = 96

   Answer: 96

2. Example 2

   624 ÷ 6 = ?

   1. Use the partial quotients method.
   2. How many 6s can you subtract from 624?
   3. 6 × 100 = 600
   4. 6 × 2 = 12
   5. 6 × 2 = 12
   6. Add the quotients: 100 + 2 + 2 = 104
   7. 624 ÷ 6 = 104

   Answer: 104

3. Example 3

   301 ÷ 7 = ?

   1. Use the partial quotients method.
   2. How many 7s can you subtract from 301?
   3. 7 × 20 = 140
   4. 7 × 20 = 140
   5. 7 × 2 = 14
   6. 7 × 1 = 7
   7. Add the quotients: 20 + 20 + 2 + 1 = 43
   8. 301 ÷ 7 = 43

   Answer: 43
