Here we will show you step-by-step with detailed explanation how to calculate 1 divided by 1 using long division.
Before you continue, note that in the problem 1 divided by 1, the numbers are defined as follows:
1 = dividend
1 = divisor
Step 1:
Start by setting it up with the divisor 1 on the left side and the dividend 1 on the right side like this:
| 1 | ⟌ | 1 |
Step 2:
The divisor (1) goes into the first digit of the dividend (1), 1 time(s). Therefore, put 1 on top:
| 1 | ||||||
| 1 | ⟌ | 1 |
Step 3:
Multiply the divisor by the result in the previous step (1 x 1 = 1) and write that answer below the dividend.
| 1 | ||||||
| 1 | ⟌ | 1 | ||||
| 1 |
Step 4:
Subtract the result in the previous step from the first digit of the dividend (1 - 1 = 0) and write the answer below.
| 1 | ||||||
| 1 | ⟌ | 1 | ||||
| - | 1 | |||||
| 0 |
You are done.
The answer is the top number and the remainder is the bottom number.
Therefore, the answer to 1 divided by 1 calculated using Long Division is:
