Long Division Tutor

How to Use This Long Division Tutor

Enter a dividend and divisor, then select Start Long Division. Fill in each part of the work yourself, or use Show Me One Step whenever you need the next correct move. When the problem is finished, the completed setup remains visible with the final answer.

How to Do Long Division Step by Step

Set up the long division problem with the dividend inside and the divisor outside. Then work through the same four steps each time: divide, multiply, subtract, and bring down.

Guided Long Division Practice

The tutor keeps the full long-division work visible as you solve. Each quotient digit, multiplication step, subtraction, and bring-down move stays aligned in the vertical setup, so your finished work becomes the step-by-step solution you can review afterward.

Long Division with Remainders

Some division problems do not divide evenly. For example, 116 ÷ 5 leaves 1 after all the full groups of 5 have been made, so the final answer is 23 R1. This tutor keeps that final remainder visible in the summary.

Tips for Learning Long Division

• Say the steps out loud: divide, multiply, subtract, bring down.
• Keep each digit in its own column so place value stays clear.
• Try examples with and without remainders.
• Practice quotient zeros, such as 1005 ÷ 5, because they are easy to skip.
