Question

Work out the following divisions and find out Quotient and Remainder:

$3\overline{)362}$

Answer 1

Let us divide $362$ by $3$

Step 1 : Divide $3$ hundreds by $3$, i.e, $3÷3=1$

Write $1$ in hundreds place of quotient and write the product $3$ below the hundreds place of dividend, $3-3=0$

Step 2 : Bring down $6$

$6÷3=2$

Write $2$ in tens place of quotient and write the product $6$ below the tens place of dividend, $6-6=0$

Step 3 : Bring down $2$

$2÷3$, which can not be divided

$0$ is the multiple of $3$, which smaller than $2$

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

we get,

$$\begin{gathered} \text{Th T O} \\ 120 \\ \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ \\ 3⟌362 \\ -3\downarrow \downarrow \\ \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ \\ 06\downarrow \\ -6\downarrow \\ \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ \\ 0\downarrow \\ 2 \\ -0 \\ 2 \end{gathered}$$

Hence, the required quotient is $120$ and remainder is $2$
