1. Division
Pamela Leutwyler

2. The base ten division algorithm relies upon your
knowledge of base ten multiplication facts. For example:
You begin this problem by noting
that 23 goes into 71 three times –
you can do this easily because you once
memorized “3x2 = 6” and “4x2 = 8”
Because you have never memorized multiplication facts
in bases other than ten, before you can begin a long
division problem, you must list the single digit multiples
of your divisor:

4. example 1:

5. example 1: 3
too big

6. example 1:
multiply 3

7. example 1: 3 1 3 -
subtract in base 5

8. example 1: 3 13 2 1 3 -
subtract in base 5 6 1
