What is the long division for 16 divided by 9?

Answer 1

1.7778

Answer 2

I'm going to use * to show a space because this form doesn't allow me to start a line with a real space :

16

*9 and write 1 somewhere because you can take no more than one 9 from 16

---

*7 this is less than 9 so that's your remainder

Answer 1, with remainder 7

This method basically amounts to what you would do for short division too.
