Division1.6
1.6 OBJECTIVES
1. Use the language of division2. Write a division problem as repeated subtraction3. Divide whole numbers
71
We will now examine a fourth arithmetic operation, division. Just as multiplication was re-peated addition, division is repeated subtraction. Division asks how many times one num-ber is contained in another.
48 40 32 24 16 8�8 �8 �8 �8 �8 �8
40 32 24 16 8 0
Example 1
Dividing by Using Subtraction
Joel needs to set up 48 chairs in the student union for a concert. If there is room for 8 chairsper row, how many rows will it take to set up all 48 chairs?
This problem can be solved by subtraction. Each row subtracts another 8 chairs.
Because 8 can be subtracted from 48 six times, there will be 6 rows.
This can also be seen as a division problem
648 � 8 � 6 or or � 6
No matter which method we use, we call the 48 the dividend, the 8 the divisor, and the 6the quotient.

Units AnalysisWhen dividing a denominate number by an abstract number, the result will getthe units of the denominate number. Here are a couple of examples
76 trombones � 4 � 19 trombones
$55 � 11 � $5
When one denominate number is divided by another, the result will get theunits of the dividend over the units of the divisor.
144 miles � 6 gallons � 24 miles/gallon (which we read as “miles per gallon”)
$120 � 8 hours � 15 dollars/hour (“dollars per hour”)
Writing a Division Statement
Write a division statement that corresponds to the following situation. You need not do thedivision.
The staff at the Wok Inn Restaurant splits all tips at the end of each shift. Yesterday’sevening shift collected a total of $224. How much should each of the seven employees getin tips?
$224 � 7 employees (note that the units for the answer will be “dollars per employee”)
Example 2
In the previous section, we used a rectangular array of stars to represent multiplication.These same arrays can represent division. Just as 3 � 4 � 12 and 4 � 3 � 12, so is it truethat 12 � 3 � 4 and 12 � 4 � 3.
C H E C K Y O U R S E L F 2

7B21
In our examples so far, the product of the divisor and the quotient has been equal to thedividend. This means that the dividend is exactly divisible by the divisor. That is not alwaysthe case. Let’s look at another example using repeated subtraction.
Dividing by Using Subtraction, Leaving a Remainder
How many times is 5 contained in 23?
23 18 13 8� 5 � 5 � 5 � 5
18 13 8
23 is not exactly divisible by 5. The “left over” 3 is called the remainder in the division.To check the division operation when a remainder is involved, we have the followingrule:

Example 4
We see that 5 is contained 4times in 23, but 3 is “left over.”

NOTE Notice that themultiplication is done beforethe 3 is added.
We must be careful when 0 is involved in a division problem. There are two specialcases.
Example 6
The first case involving zero occurs when we are dividing into zero.
Dividing into Zero
0 � 5 � 0 because 0 � 5 � 0.
Our second case illustrates what happens when 0 is the divisor. Here we have a specialproblem.
Example 7
Dividing by Zero
8 � 0 � ? This means that 8 � 0 � ?
Can 0 times some number ever be 8? From our multiplication facts, the answer is no! Thereis no answer to this problem, so we say that 8 � 0 is undefined.
1. 0 divided by any whole number (except 0) is 0.
2. Division by 0 is undefined.

Subtracting 160 is just a shortcut forsubtracting eight 20 times.
Adding 20 and 2 gives us the quotient, 22.�
Dividing by a Single-Digit Number
Divide 176 by 8.
Because 20 eights are 160, we know that there are at least 20 eights in 176.
Step 1 Write
20
20 eights 16016
After subtracting the 20 eights, or 160, we are left with 16. There are 2 eights in 16, and sowe continue.
Step 2 22220
16016
2 eights 160
Subtracting the 2 eights, we have a 0 remainder. So 176 � 8 � 22

DIVISION SECTION 1.6 75
It is easy to divide when small whole numbers are involved, because much of the work canbe done mentally. In working with larger numbers, we turn to a process called long divi-sion. This is a shorthand method for performing the steps of repeated subtraction.
To start, let’s look at an example in which we subtract multiples of the divisor.

NOTE With larger numbers,repeated subtraction is just tootime-consuming to be practical.
Example 8
When we place 5 as the tens digit,we really mean 5 tens, or 50.
Example 9
Dividing by a Single-Digit Number
Divide 358 by 6.
The dividend is 358. We look at the first digit, 3. We cannot divide 6 into 3, and so we lookat the first two digits, 35. There are 5 sixes in 35, and so we write 5 above the tens digit ofthe dividend.
56B358
The next step is to simplify this repeated-subtraction process one step further. The resultwill be the long-division method.
C H E C K Y O U R S E L F 7
Decide whether each problem results in 0 or is undefined.
(a) 9 � 0 (b) 0 � 9 (c) 0 � 15 (d) 15 � 0
C H E C K Y O U R S E L F 8
Verify the results of Example 8, using multiplication.
76 CHAPTER 1 OPERATIONS ON WHOLE NUMBERS
Now multiply 5 � 6, place the product below 35, and subtract.
5
3005
Because the remainder, 5, is smaller than the divisor, 6, we bring down 8, the ones digit ofthe dividend.
5
30058
Now divide 6 into 58. There are 9 sixes in 58, and so 9 is the ones digit of the quotient. Mul-tiply 9 � 6 and subtract to complete the process.

We have actually subtracted 50 sixes(300) from 358.
We now have:358 � 6 � 59 r4
NOTE Because the 4 is smallerthan the divisor, we have aremainder of 4.
NOTE Verify that this is trueand that the division checks.
7NOTE Think: 4B29
Long division becomes a bit more complicated when we have a two-digit divisor. It is nowa matter of trial and error. We round the divisor and dividend to form a trial divisor and atrial dividend. We then estimate the proper quotient and must determine whether our esti-mate was correct.
Dividing by a Two-Digit Number
Divide
Round the divisor and dividend to the nearest ten. So 38 is rounded to 40, and 293 isrounded to 290. The trial divisor is then 40, and the trial dividend is 290.
Now look at the nonzero digits in the trial divisor and dividend. They are 4 and 29. Weknow that there are 7 fours in 29, and so 7 is our first estimate of the quotient. Now let’s seeif 7 works.
7
26627
The remainder, 27, is less than the divisor, 38, and so the process is complete.
293 � 38 � 7 r27
Check: 293 � 38 � 7 � 27 You should verify that this statement is true.
38B293

Multiply 7 � 38. The product, 266, isless than 293, and so we can subtract.

Too large
We multiply 8 � 54. Do you see what’s wrong? Theproduct, 432, is too large. We can’t subtract. Ourestimate of the quotient must be adjusted downward.
We have to be careful when a 0 appears as a digit in the quotient. Let’s look at an exam-ple in which this happens with a two-digit divisor.

Another problem develops here. We round 32 to 30 for our trial divisor, and we round 271to 270, which is the trial dividend at this point. Our estimate of the last digit of the quotientmust be 9.

DIVISION SECTION 1.6 79
Because of the availability of the handheld calculator, it is rarely necessary that people findthe exact answer when performing long division. On the other hand, it is frequently impor-tant that one be able to either estimate the result of long division, or confirm that a givenanswer (particularly from a calculator) is reasonable. As a result, the emphasis in this sec-tion will be to improve your estimation skills in division.
Let’s divide a four-digit number by a two-digit number. Generally, we will round thedivisor to the nearest ten and the dividend to the nearest hundred.

Estimating the Result of a Division Application
Charles purchases a new car for $8574. Interest charges will be $978. He agrees to makepayments for 4 years. Approximately what should his payments be?
First, we find the amount that Charles owes:
$8574 � $978 � $9552
Now, to find the monthly payment, we divide that amount by 48 (months). To estimate thepayment, we’ll divide $9600 by 50 months.
192
The payments will be approximately $192 per month.

Using a Scientific Calculatorto Divide
Of course, division is easily done by using your calculator. However, as we will see, somespecial things come up when we use a calculator to divide. First let’s outline the steps ofdivision as it is done on a calculator.
Divide
1. Enter the dividend. 2380
2. Press the divide key.
3. Enter the divisor. 35
4. Press the equals key. The desired quotient is now in
your display.
The display shows
We mentioned some of the difficulties related to division with 0 earlier. Let’s experimenton the calculator.
