Introduction to Double-Digit Division

Flashcards covering vocabulary and core concepts for dividing double-digit numbers by single-digit divisors as presented in the lecture.

Dividend

The number that is being divided; for example, in the problem $37 \text{ divided by } 5$, the number $37$ is the dividend.

Divisor

The number that you are dividing by; for example, in the problem $37/5$, the number $5$ is the divisor.

Remainder

The amount left over when a number cannot be divided evenly into groups; it is denoted with the letter $R$.

Divide

The first step in the long division process where you determine how many times the divisor fits into a portion of the dividend.

Multiply

The second step in the long division process; for example, multiplying the quotient digit $7$ by the divisor $5$ to get $35$.

Subtract

The third step in the long division process where you find the difference between the dividend value and the multiplied product (e.g., $37 - 35 = 2$).

Bring down

The step in long division where you move the next digit of the dividend down to continue the division process.

$$37 \text{ divided by } 5$$

A division problem that results in a quotient of $7$ and a remainder of $2$ ($7 \text{ R } 2$).

$$98 \text{ divided by } 4$$

A division problem that results in a quotient of $24$ and a remainder of $2$ ($24 \text{ R } 2$).

$$64 \text{ divided by } 3$$

A division problem that results in a quotient of $21$ and a remainder of $1$ ($21 \text{ R } 1$).

$$84 \text{ divided by } 4$$

A division problem that results in a quotient of $21$ with no remainder; the transcript notes you should not write remainder zero.
