2
Step 1 Divide
Begin by dividing 2 ? 2 and write your answer (1)
above the number you divided.
3
Step 2 Multiply
Next multiply the quotient and the divisor (1 x
2) and write your answer (2) under the first
number you divided.
4
Step 3 Subtract
Then, subtract your product from your divisor (2
2). Write your answer (0) under the numbers
you subtracted.
5
Step 4 Bring Down
Bring down the next number to be divided (3).
6
Continue with your steps.

Notes

• If you have finished dividing all of the digits
  in your dividend, and your final
  subtraction answer is 0 you are finished and may
  check your work.

• If you have finished dividing all of the digits
  in your dividend, and your final
  subtraction answer is a number other than 0, but
  less than your divisor, write this answer as a
  remainder by writing a capital R next to your
  quotient and then the final subtraction answer.
  You are finished and may check your work.

• If you have finished dividing all of the digits
  in your dividend, and your final
  subtraction answer is a number greater than your
  divisor you need to check over your work very
  carefully. Having a remainder greater than your
  divisor means there is another group or groups of
  that number.
