4. Step 1 in Long Division
• Divide 2 into first
number in the dividend.
2 ) 64
• Think how many 2’s
will fit into 6.
3
How many 2’s
will go into 6?
2 x 3 = 6!!!• Write that number directly
above the number you
divided into.

5. Step 2 in Long Division
• Multiply the divisor
times the first
number in the quotient.
2 ) 64
• Write your answer
directly under the 6
or the number you
just divided into.

7. Step 4 in Long Division
• Go to the next number in
the dividend to the right of
the 6.
2 ) 6 4
• Draw an arrow under the 4.
34. Bring
down
6
• Bring the 4 down next to the 0.

8. Step 5 in Long Division
• This is where you decide
whether you repeat the
5 steps of division.
2 ) 6 4
• If your divisor can divide into your new number,
4, or if you have numbers in the dividend
that have not been brought down, you repeat
the 5 steps of division.

13. Step 5 in Long Division
• Since there are no more
numbers to bring down
& 4 minus 4 equals
zero, we have finished the
problem. 64 divided 2
equals 32.
