To break down the division of 2276 by 6 into smaller steps, you can use friendly equations. Here's one way to do it:

  1. Divide 1800 by 6: \[ 1800 \div 6 = 300 \]

  2. Divide 400 by 6: \[ 400 \div 6 = 66 \quad \text{(remainder 4)} \]

  3. Divide 72 by 6: \[ 72 \div 6 = 12 \]

  4. Combine the results from the above divisions: \[ 300 + 66 + 12 = 378 \]

  5. Now, let's account for the remaining 4 from step 2. We can represent it as: \[ 4 \div 6 = 0 \quad \text{(not adding anything to the quotient)} \]

So the final result of \( 2276 \div 6 \) is \( 378 \) with a remainder of \( 4 \):

\[ 2276 \div 6 = 378 \quad \text{(and a remainder of 4)} \]

These smaller equations help break down the larger division into more manageable parts!
