Long Division
  • By Mrs. Sherri Voerg

We are going to divide. It is easy to do, as
long as you follow the steps. Division is like a
recipe. The steps must be followed precisely and
in order for the problem to come out correctly.
The following silly sentence will help you
remember the division steps Does My Sister Chew
Bugs Rats? D Divide M Multiply S
Subtract C Check B Bring down R Repeat or
Remainder

Here is a division problem to work out
4
Step 1 is Divide
We need to decide how many times 14 will go into
16.
It will go 1 time.
5
Step 2 Multiply We need to multiply 14 x 1.
14
6
The next step is to Subtract.
- 14
2
7
Step 3 is to Check. We need to make sure that
the answer to our subtraction problem is smaller
than our divisor, 14.
- 14

2 is smaller than 14, so we can go to the Next
step.
8
The next step is to Bring Down.

- 14

9
The next step is to Repeat. We go back to step
one and Divide. We need to decide how many times
14 will go into 27.
14 x 2 28 and that is bigger than 27. So we
will use 14 x 1 14.

that the answer to our subtraction problem is
less than the divisor 14.

The next step is to Bring Down. Since there are
no numbers to bring down, we do not repeat, but
use the 13 as our Remainder.
