Hey T-Bang, good to see you again.
Here's how to solve 42÷8 using long division:
Step 1: Divide the first part of the dividend (42) by the divisor (8).
We need to find how many times 8 goes into 42 without exceeding it.
8×5=40
8×6=48 (This is too large)
So, 8 goes into 42 five times. Write 5 above the 2 in 42.
Step 2: Multiply the quotient digit (5) by the divisor (8).
5×8=40. Write 40 below 42.
Step 3: Subtract 40 from 42.
42−40=2. This is the remainder.
58)42−402
The quotient is 5 and the remainder is 2.
So, 42÷8=5 with a remainder of 2.
You can also write this as a mixed number:
582=541
Or as a decimal:
5.25
The long division answer is: 5remainder2
