Question

Divide the following:

$480÷4$

Answer 1

Let us divide $480$ by $4$

Step 1 : Divide $4$ hundreds by $4$ i.e, $4÷4=1$

Write $1$ in the hundreds place of the quotient and write product $4$, below the dividend in the hundreds place. $4-4=0$

Step 2 : Bring down $8$

$8÷4=2$

Write $2$ in the tens place of the quotient and write product $8$, below the dividend in the tens place. $8-8=0$

Step 3 : Bring down $0$

$0÷0=0$

Write $0$ in the ones place of the quotient and write 0 below the dividend in ones place. $2-2=0$

$$\begin{gathered} \text{H T O} \\ 120 \\ 4⟌480 \\ -4\downarrow \downarrow \\ 08\downarrow \\ -8\downarrow \\ 0\downarrow \\ 0 \\ -0 \\ 0 \end{gathered}$$

Hence, the required quotient is $120$ and remainder is $0$
