How do you divide 518 by 7?

Answer 1

7)518 =

We say 7 into 51 goes 7 times remainder '2' ( 7 x 7 = 49 + 2 = 51)

So the first part of the answer is '7'

Hence 7)518 = 7 ...

The remainder '2' is combined weith the '8' as;28; ( NOT 10).

We say 7 into 28 goes 4 times remainder '0' ( 7 x 4 = 28 + 0 = 28)

So thesecond part of ther answer is ' 4'.

Hence

7)518 = 74 The answer/

NB Once the remainder is reduced to 'zero' that is the dend of the division.
