Quick answer
How do you do long division?
Divide, multiply, subtract, bring down — repeat. For 1234 ÷ 5: 12 ÷ 5 = 2 (rem 2), bring down 3 → 23 ÷ 5 = 4 (rem 3), bring down 4 → 34 ÷ 5 = 6 (rem 4). Answer: 246 R 4, or 246.8.
Dividend = divisor × quotient + remainder, where 0 ≤ remainder < divisor.

- Start with 12. 12 ÷ 5 = 2 (write 2 on top). 2 × 5 = 10. 12 − 10 = 2.
- Bring down the next digit → 23. 23 ÷ 5 = 4 (write 4 on top). 4 × 5 = 20. 23 − 20 = 3.
- Bring down the next digit → 34. 34 ÷ 5 = 6 (write 6 on top). 6 × 5 = 30. 34 − 30 = 4.
- No digits left: quotient 246, remainder 4.
- Check: 5 × 246 + 4 = 1234.
