rather than dividing the entire 824 all at once we divide through one digit a time starting on the left with the hundreds column
which in this case is the eight so firstly we do 8 divided by four which gives us two we write that in directly above the eight on next step is to move on to the two the 824 in the tens column now you'll notice that Ford is not divide into two is a whole number we therefore per 20 above the two and we now have to carry the two
the 824 across to the fore in the units column the two carried across means that rather than dividing by just four in the units column we are now divided by 24 24 divided by four is six so we write in this number in the units called we therefore get to a final answer 206 through breaking down this complex calculation into smaller more manageable steps.
