Using Euclidean division, 9 divided by 4 is 2 with remainder 1. In other words, each person receives 2 slices of pie, and there is 1 slice left over. This can be confirmed using multiplication, the inverse of division: if each of the 4 people received 2 slices, then 4 × 2 = 8 slices were given out in total. Adding the 1 slice remaining, the ...
The Babylonian clay tablet YBC 7289 (c. 1800–1600 BC) gives an approximation of the square root of 2 in four sexagesimal figures, 𒐕 𒌋𒌋𒐼 𒐐𒐕 𒌋 = 1;24,51,10, [13] which is accurate to about six decimal digits, [14] and is the closest possible three-place sexagesimal representation of √ 2:
Divide the highest term of the remainder by the highest term of the divisor (3x ÷ x = 3). Place the result (+3) below the bar. 3x has been divided leaving no remainder, and can therefore be marked as used. The result 3 is then multiplied by the second term in the divisor −3 = −9. Determine the partial remainder by subtracting −4 − (− ...

For this to be well defined, B −1 need not exist, however A −1 does need to exist. To avoid confusion, division as defined by A / B = AB −1 is sometimes called right division or slash-division in this context. With left and right division defined this way, A / (BC) is in general not the same as (A / B) / C, nor is (AB) \ C the same as A ...
