Answer: I think the remainders 3 and quotient is 5.3333333333333333333 ( it goes on and on )

Explanation:

Step 1:

Start by setting it up with the divisor 6 on the left side and the dividend 32 on the right side like this:

6 ⟌ 3 2

Step 2:

The divisor (6) goes into the first digit of the dividend (3), 0 time(s). Therefore, put 0 on top:

0

6 ⟌ 3 2

Step 3:

Multiply the divisor by the result in the previous step (6 x 0 = 0) and write that answer below the dividend.

0

6 ⟌ 3 2

0

Step 4:

Subtract the result in the previous step from the first digit of the dividend (3 - 0 = 3) and write the answer below.

0

6 ⟌ 3 2

- 0

3

Step 5:

Move down the 2nd digit of the dividend (2) like this:

0

6 ⟌ 3 2

- 0

3 2

Step 6:

The divisor (6) goes into the bottom number (32), 5 time(s). Therefore, put 5 on top:

0 5

6 ⟌ 3 2

- 0

3 2

Step 7:

Multiply the divisor by the result in the previous step (6 x 5 = 30) and write that answer at the bottom:

0 5

6 ⟌ 3 2

- 0

3 2

3 0

Step 8:

Subtract the result in the previous step from the number written above it. (32 - 30 = 2) and write the answer at the bottom.

0 5

6 ⟌ 3 2

- 0

3 2

- 3 0

2

You are done, because there ar
