About this exercise

Long division where the answer keeps a remainder rather than a decimal.

How to solve it

Divide as usual until no digits remain to bring down. Whatever is left after the final subtraction is the remainder.

Worked example

947 : 4 gives 236 with a remainder of 3.

Common mistake

A remainder as large as the divisor. If it is, the last quotient digit was one too small.
