Question

e 3 longdiv 7224 with some arrows and dashed lines (the image shows a long - division problem: dividing 7224 by 3, with some parts of the long - division steps marked with arrows and dashed lines, and a 4 written above the division bar)

Explanation:

Step1: Divide the first digit

Divide 7 by 3. $7 \div 3 = 2$ with a remainder of 1. Write 2 above the 7.

Step2: Bring down the next digit

Bring down the 2 to make the new dividend 12.

Step3: Divide 12 by 3

$12 \div 3 = 4$. Write 4 above the 2.

Step4: Bring down the next digit

Bring down the next 2 to make the dividend 2.

Step5: Divide 2 by 3

Since 2 < 3, write 0 above the 2.

Step6: Bring down the last digit

Bring down the 4 to make the dividend 24.

Step7: Divide 24 by 3

$24 \div 3 = 8$. Write 8 above the 4.

Answer:

The quotient of \(7224 \div 3\) is \(2408\).
