2. Long division - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_division

   Caldrini (1491) is the earliest printed example of long division, known as the Danda method in medieval Italy, [4] and it became more practical with the introduction of decimal notation for fractions by Pitiscus (1608). The specific algorithm in modern use was introduced by Henry Briggs c. 1600. [5]

3. Polynomial long division - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial_long_division

   Polynomial long division is an algorithm that implements the Euclidean division of polynomials, which starting from two polynomials A (the dividend) and B (the divisor) produces, if B is not zero, a quotient Q and a remainder R such that. and either R = 0 or the degree of R is lower than the degree of B. These conditions uniquely define Q and R ...

4. Division (mathematics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Division_(mathematics)

   Division is one of the four basic operations of arithmetic. The other operations are addition, subtraction, and multiplication. What is being divided is called the dividend, which is divided by the divisor, and the result is called the quotient. At an elementary level the division of two natural numbers is, among other possible interpretations ...

5. Short division - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Short_division

   Short division. In arithmetic, short division is a division algorithm which breaks down a division problem into a series of easier steps. It is an abbreviated form of long division — whereby the products are omitted and the partial remainders are notated as superscripts. As a result, a short division tableau is shorter than its long division ...

6. Ruffini's rule - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ruffini's_rule

   Ruffini's rule. In mathematics, Ruffini's rule is a method for computation of the Euclidean division of a polynomial by a binomial of the form x – r. It was described by Paolo Ruffini in 1809. [1] The rule is a special case of synthetic division in which the divisor is a linear factor.

7. Chunking (division) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chunking_(division)

   Chunking (division) In mathematics education at the primary school level, chunking (sometimes also called the partial quotients method) is an elementary approach for solving simple division questions by repeated subtraction. It is also known as the hangman method with the addition of a line separating the divisor, dividend, and partial ...
