Practice Long Division in Math

Use these practice problems to test your method after reviewing the concept explanation and worked examples.

Quick Recap

Long division is a step-by-step method for dividing large numbers by breaking the problem into a series of easier steps: divide, multiply, subtract, bring down, and repeat. It produces a quotient and possibly a remainder.

Long division is like distributing items into groups one place value at a time. If you have 156 stickers to share among 12 friends, you first figure out how many groups of 12 fit in 156 by working from the biggest place value down: how many 12s in 15? Then bring down the next digit and repeat.
