1. How to do Long Division Part Two
(Dirty Monkeys Smell Bad)

2. Mnemonic – memory aid Dirty: Divide Monkeys: Multiply Smell: Subtract
Bad: Bring Down

3. Vocabulary Words for the parts of the problem
quotient remainder
divisor dividend
product

4. Step One -- Divide Look at the first two digits of the dividend.
Decide how many times the divisor can go into the dividend without going over.
“Twenty-three can be divided into two equal groups of eight with some left over.”
Think:
How many times can 8 go into 23 without going over? 2
8 235

5. Step Two – Multiply Multiply the divisor by the quotient.
Write your answer under the dividend.
Think: 2 x 8 = 16 2
8 235 16

6. Step Three – Subtract Subtract the product from the dividend.
Notice you still have a five in the dividend.
Think: 23 – 16 = 7 2 16 7

7. Step Four – Bring Down Bring the five down next to the seven. 2
Repeat steps 1 – 3. 2 16 75

8. Step One -- Divide
Decide how many times the divisor can go into the new number without going over.
“Seventy-five can be divided into nine equal groups of eight with some left over.”
Think:
How many times can 8 go into 75 without going over? 2
8 235 16 75

9. Step Two – Multiply Multiply the divisor by the new quotient.
Write your answer under the dividend.
Think: 9 x 8 = 72 29
8 235 16 75 72

10. Step Three – Subtract Subtract the product from the previous answer.
There is nothing more to bring down. Your answer becomes the remainder.
Think: 9 x 8 = 72
29 R 3
8 235 16 75 72 3

11. Review the four steps Dirty – divide the dividend by the divisor.
Monkeys – multiply the quotient by the divisor and write the answer under the dividend.
Smell – subtract the product from the dividend.
Bad – bring down the next part of the dividend and repeat steps 1 – 3.
