What is the method used for dividing any number with another number?

This method of division will help us to divide any number with any number. Kids from class 9 and above can use this method for division of two numbers quickly. For example, we have to divide 9875 by 42. Now, 42 is close to 40, that is, it is two more than the base. Here, base refers to 40 and now the term complement refers to -2. 

  • Step one involves copying down the first digit, which is the leftmost digit as it is. 
  • Next, step two consists of dividing this digit with 4, that is ignoring 0 of the base and considering only 4 as a divisor.
  • Now, in step three, the quotient will be multiplied to the complement and the product obtained is added to the next digit of the dividend. 
  • Lastly, in step four the number obtained as the sum will now be divided with the divisor that is 4 in this case. These steps are repeated until one reaches the rightmost digits of the dividend.
