Use long division to find the quotient of 22

Question

÷
÷ 5

Answer 1

To perform long division for \( 22 \div 5 \), follow these steps:

1. Determine how many times 5 fits into 22:

   • 5 fits into 22 a total of 4 times (because \( 5 \times 4 = 20 \)).

2. Multiply 5 by 4:

   • \( 5 \times 4 = 20 \)

3. Subtract 20 from 22:

   • \( 22 - 20 = 2 \)

4. Write the quotient and remainder:

   • The quotient is 4, and the remainder is 2.

Thus, when dividing \( 22 \div 5 \), the result is:

\[ \text{Quotient} = 4 \quad \text{Remainder} = 2 \]

We can also express this as: \[ 22 \div 5 = 4 \quad \text{with a remainder of} \quad 2 \]

Or alternatively, \( 22 = 5 \times 4 + 2 \).

In decimal form, \( 22 \div 5 = 4.4 \) if you continue the division (0.4 comes from dividing the remainder 2 by 5).
