The base ten division algorithm relies upon your knowledge of base ten multiplication facts. For example:
..371323
You begin this problem by noting that 23 goes into 71 three times – you can do this easily because you once memorized “3x2 = 6” and “4x2 = 8”
Because you have never memorized multiplication facts in bases other than ten, before you can begin a long division problem, you must list the single digit multiples of your divisor:
