Multiplication and Division of Whole Numbers

Division:

For numbers, the operation of assert how many times one number, the divisor, is contained in a second, the dividend. The result is known as quotient and if the divisor is not contained an integral number of times in the dividend; any number left over is called the remainder. The symbol of division is / or ÷.

I like to share this Division with Remainders with you all through my article.

Multiplication:

The product of two numbers is known as multiplication. Here we are going to learn about some example problems of multiplication and division whole numbers.

Example Problems of Multiplication Whole Numbers:

Example 1:

12*14

Step 1: First we need to take 4 and multiply with 12 = 48.

Step 2: Now we need to take 1 and multiply with 12 = 12.

Step 3:

Step 4: Therefore the answer is 168.

Example 2:

23*42

Step 1: First we need to take 2 and multiply with 23 =46.

Step 2: Now we need to take 4 and multiply with 23 =92.

Step 3:



Step 4: Therefore the answer is 966.

Example 3:

231* 14

Step 1: First we need to take 4 and multiply with 231 = 924.

Step 2: Now we need to take 1 and multiply with 231 = 231

Step 3:



Step 4: Therefore, the answer is 3234.

These are the examples problems of multiplication of whole numbers.

Understanding double digit multiplication is always challenging for me but thanks to all math help websites to help me out.

Examples of Dividing Whole Numbers:

Example 1:

Solve: `(143)/(3)`

Solution:

Step 1: Here we need to perform division operation `(143)/(3)` .

Step 2: First we need to take first two digits that is 14.  And we know that 4 times 3 = 12.

Step 3: Now we need to minus 12 from 14 = 2.

Step 4: Here we need to get the next term.

Step 5: The next term is 3. So presently we have 23.

Step 6: We know that 7 times 3 = 21.

Step 7: So the quotient is 47 and remainder is 2.



Example 2:

Solve:  `(276)/(12)`

Solution:

Step 1: Here we need to perform division operation `(276)/(12)` .

Step 2: First we need to take first two digits that is 27.  And we know that 2 times 12 = 24.

Step 3: Now we need to minus 24 from 27 = 6.

Step 4: Here we need to get the next term.

Step 5: The next term is 6. So presently we have 36.

Step 6: We know that 3 times 12 = 36.

Step 7: So the quotient is 23 and remainder is 0.



These are the examples of division of whole numbers.
