Method 2
We are going to try to solve
839 ÷ 27
839 ÷ 27
Method 2
becomes

Miles off!
839 ÷ 27
Method 2

27 x 20 = 540
Getting better!
839 ÷ 27
Method 2

27 x 10 = 270
27 x 20 = 540
27 x 30 = 810
Much better!
839 ÷ 27
Method 2
27 ) 8 3 9
27 x 30 = 810
Put the 810 underneath.
- 8 1 0

Method 3
We are going to try to solve
839 ÷ 27
839 ÷ 27
Method 3
becomes
27 ) 8 3 9
839 ÷ 27
Method 3
27 ) 8 3 9
Calculate 8 ÷ 27
839 ÷ 27
Method 3
27 ) 8 3 9
We can’t do it, so we write the answer 0 here
0
839 ÷ 27
Method 3
27 ) 8 3 9
So we next look at 83 ÷ 27
0
Use you repeated subtraction here if this helps
839 ÷ 27
Method 3
27 ) 8 3 90
2 x 27 = 54
3 x 27 = 81
3
839 ÷ 27
Method 3
27 ) 8 3 90
3 x 27 = 81
3
- 8 1
2
We need to take off 81 from the 83 to get the remainder
839 ÷ 27
Method 3
27 ) 8 3 90 3
- 8 1
2 9
Drop the next digit next to the 2
839 ÷ 27
Method 3
27 ) 8 3 90 3 1
- 8 1
2 9
Now we are going to do 29 ÷ 27 and put the answer here
839 ÷ 27
Method 3
27 ) 8 3 90 3 1
- 8 1
2 9
Now we are going to do 29 - 27 to get the remainder
