Sure! The box method is a way to visually represent the division process. Here's how it works for 852 ÷ 6:

1. First, write 852 as the dividend inside the box, and write 6 as the divisor outside the box.

8 5 2
------
6|

2. Start dividing the first digit of the dividend (8) by the divisor (6). In this case, 8 ÷ 6 equals 1 with a remainder of 2. Write the quotient (1) above the division line, and write the remainder (2) to the right of the 8.

6| 8 5 2

3. Bring down the next digit of the dividend (5) and place it beside the remainder (2). The new number becomes 25.

4. Divide 25 by 6. The quotient is 4 with a remainder of 1. Write the quotient (4) above the division line, and write the remainder (1) to the right of the 5.

5. Bring down the last digit of the dividend (2) beside the remainder (1) to form 12.

6. Divide 12 by 6. The quotient is 2 with no remainder. Write the quotient (2) above the division line.

7. The division is complete when all the digits of the dividend have been brought down and no remainder is left. The final quotient is 142.

Therefore, 852 ÷ 6 = 142.
