Here we will show you step-by-step with detailed explanation how to calculate 9 divided by 6 using long division.
Before you continue, note that in the problem 9 divided by 6, the numbers are defined as follows:
9 = dividend
6 = divisor
Step 1:
Start by setting it up with the divisor 6 on the left side and the dividend 9 on the right side like this:
6 | ⟌ | 9 |
Step 2:
The divisor (6) goes into the first digit of the dividend (9), 1 time(s). Therefore, put 1 on top:
1 | ||||||
6 | ⟌ | 9 |
Step 3:
Multiply the divisor by the result in the previous step (6 x 1 = 6) and write that answer below the dividend.
1 | ||||||
6 | ⟌ | 9 | ||||
6 |
Step 4:
Subtract the result in the previous step from the first digit of the dividend (9 - 6 = 3) and write the answer below.
