Why did they invent long division?

Henry Briggs, an English mathematician (1561­1630), developed the method we commonly use now to do long division. Fractions based on 10's, 100's, etc. were used in the Indus Valley more than 4000 years ago. Egyptians used fractions with ones in the numerators about 4000 years ago. Mathematicians often build on the work of predecessors. Sure, sometimes a single "genius" develops a totally new idea, but many times a new idea or new way of doing things is an improvement on an old one.
