156: it is divisible by 2 and by 13. Subtracting 5 times the last digit from 2 times the rest of the number gives a multiple of 26. (Works because 52 is divisible by 26.) 1,248 : (124 ×2) - (8×5) = 208 = 26 × 8 27: Sum the digits in blocks of three from right to left. (Works because 999 is divisible by 27.) 2,644,272: 2 + 644 + 272 = 918.
This is denoted as 20 / 5 = 4, or 20 / 5 = 4. [2] In the example, 20 is the dividend, 5 is the divisor, and 4 is the quotient. Unlike the other basic operations, when dividing natural numbers there is sometimes a remainder that will not go evenly into the dividend; for example, 10 / 3 leaves a remainder of 1, as 10 is not a multiple of 3.
Dividing 272 and 8, starting with the hundreds digit, 2 is not divisible by 8. Add 20 and 7 to get 27. The largest number that the divisor of 8 can be multiplied by without exceeding 27 is 3, so it is written under the tens column. Subtracting 24 (the product of 3 and 8) from 27 gives 3 as the remainder.
1 2 5 (Explanations) 4)500 1 0 ( 5 - 4 = 1) 2 0 (10 - 8 = 2) 0 (20 - 20 = 0) In Bolivia , Brazil , Paraguay , Venezuela , French-speaking Canada , Colombia , and Peru , the European notation (see below) is used, except that the quotient is not separated by a vertical line, as shown below:
Long division is the standard algorithm used for pen-and-paper division of multi-digit numbers expressed in decimal notation. It shifts gradually from the left to the right end of the dividend, subtracting the largest possible multiple of the divisor (at the digit level) at each stage; the multiples then become the digits of the quotient, and the final difference is then the remainder.

For example, there are six divisors of 4; they are 1, 2, 4, −1, −2, and −4, but only the positive ones (1, 2, and 4) would usually be mentioned. 1 and −1 divide (are divisors of) every integer. Every integer (and its negation) is a divisor of itself. Integers divisible by 2 are called even, and integers not divisible by 2 are called odd.
