Step 2
The Dividend must be placed starting from the third rod on
the left side of the abacus.
Third rod

menu
169. Division Using Abacus
Step 3
To find the place to up the quotient, divide the first digit of the dividend with
divisor, if the digit is not less than the divisor, skip 1 rod to the left from the
dividend to place the quotient. If the digit is less, place the quotient beside the
dividend on the left side.
Example
4÷2=
4 can be divided with 2, so skip 1 rod to the left from the dividend
menu
170. Division Using Abacus
Example
4 ÷ 2 =
4 can be divided with 2,so skip 1 rod to the left from the dividend.
menu
171. Division Using Abacus
Step 4
Minus the Dividend with the product of
Quotient × Divisor.
Example
4÷ 2 =2
Quotient x Divisor
2 x 2 =4
So, down 4 at dividend
menu
173. Division Using Abacus
Step 5
To find out number of digit for quotient,
(number of digit for dividend – number of digit for divisor)
then plus 1 if the first digit of dividend is bigger then the first
digit of divisor
Example
4÷ 2 =2
(number of digit for dividend – number of digit of divisor)
1 digit - 1 digit
(number 4 is more then 2 so, add 1 digit) = 1–1+1
The answer or quotient must be = 1 digit

dividend on the left side.
Example
15 ÷ 5 =
1 cannot be divided with 5, so place the quotient beside the dividend on the
left

Step 4
Minus the Dividend with the product of
Quotient × Divisor.
Example
15 ÷ 5 =3
Quotient x Divisor
3 x 5 = 15
So, down 15 at dividend
menu
185. Division Using Abacus
Step 5
To find out number of digit for quotient,
(number of digit for dividend – number of digit for divisor)
then plus 1 if the first digit of dividend is bigger then the first
digit of divisor
Example
15 ÷ 5 =3
(number of digit for dividend – number of digit of divisor)
2 digit - 1 digit
(number 1 is less then 5 so, don’t add 1 digit) = 2-1
The answer or quotient must be = 1 digit
