Question

Work out the following divisions:

$5005÷5$

Answer 1

Let us divide $5005$ by $5$

Step 1 : Divide $5$ thousands by $5$ i.e, $5÷5=1$

Write $1$ in the thousands place of the quotient and write product $5$, below the dividend in the thousands place. $5-5=0$

Step 2 : Bring down $0$

$0÷5=0$

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

Step 3 : Bring down $0$

$0÷5=0$

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

Step 4 : Bring down $5$

$5÷5=1$

Write $1$ in the ones place of the quotient and write $5$ below the dividend in ones place. $5-5=0$

$$\begin{gathered} \text{TH H T O} \\ 1001 \\ 5⟌5005 \\ -5\downarrow \downarrow \downarrow \\ 00\downarrow \downarrow \\ -0\downarrow \downarrow \\ 0\downarrow \downarrow \\ 0\downarrow \\ -0\downarrow \\ 0\downarrow \\ 5 \\ -5 \\ 0 \end{gathered}$$

Hence, the required quotient is $1001$ and remainder is $0$
