okay I want to give an explanation for long division like learned it in class today and so the first thing we're going to do is write our problem we're not squishy making many we have some room in our problem and I want the kids to put three laws are aligned for each digit in the dividend and then we're going to list are multiples in this case we're going to listing of six okay so then we're going to ask her so we're going to use the acronym Daddy mother sister brother Rover cat and I'll explain what that means is I go this is just a way to help the kids remember the steps to follow okay so the first thing I'm going to ask myself is how many groups of 6 can I make with the number 9 so what I'll do is look at my multiples list and see how close I can get to the number 9 without going over in the answer is one cuz it's right there so one group of six so we just divided that's what the D and daddy stands for the m stands for * 4 * 1 * 6 equals 6 the S stands for subtract so we're going to 9 - 6 equals 3 then ask yourself is my remainder which is what I have left over at this point smaller than my divisor if it's not smaller you can make another group you need to check your map in this case it is smaller so I can't make another group so I'm going to bring down my ex in this case so now I'm asking myself how many groups of 6 can I make with the 38 so let's look at our list of multiples we're going to go as close as we can to 38 without going over which in this case of E36 so let's count 1 2 3 4 5 6 so 6 now if we provided now we're going to multiply 6 x 6 equals 36 then we're going to subtract 8 - 6 is 2 is my remainder smaller than my divisor yes it is so I'm going to bring down again every time you bring down you have to go back up and start over that's why the arrows they are so now how many groups of 6 can I make with the number 24 so let's look there's 20 41234 then we're going to multiply 4 times 6 equals 24 subtract okay now we get to go below the line the RX forum we don't have a remainder in this case so we don't have to write it up there and the sea is for check to check our problem we are going to take our answer which is 164 multiplied at times are done just 6 exam fix is 36 + 2 is 38 this number right here should match this number right here and that is the way doing long division
