Then divide the remainder again by the divisor until you get a remainder smaller than your divisor or an remainder equal to zero.
The remainder in a division question should never be larger than the "divisor", but the remainder often is larger than the "answer" (quotient). For example, if 435 is divided by 63, the quotient is 22 and the remainder is 57.

How big can a remainder be and why?
A remainder can be any non-negative number that is less than the divisor. If the remainder is bigger than the divisor, the divisor can go into it another one (or more) times until the remainder is brought into that range.
Can the remainder be bigger then the quotient?
no
How many times 35 go to 160?
Since 160 is bigger than 35, it goes in 0 times, with a remainder of 35.
How do you make a division problem?
You do something called the amazing disco. First you divide the bigger number by the remainder, than multiply by 6 than you add 52 and there you got your answer! ( Just joking)
Why does the remainder be greater then the divvisor?
The remainder can be greater than the divisor when the dividend is significantly larger than the divisor. In division, the remainder is the amount that is left over after dividing the dividend by the divisor. If the dividend is much larger than the divisor, it is likely that the remainder will also be larger than the divisor.
