Long division (relevant for 6Q 19.1-19.3)

The long division method shown in the image demonstrates how to divide 1852 by 4 using a step-by-step approach. This method, often referred to as the "Norwegian method," involves breaking down the division into manageable parts.

First, identify the largest multiple of 4 that fits into the leading digits of 1852. Here, 1600 is used, which is 4 times 400. Subtract 1600 from 1852 to get 252. Next, find the largest multiple of 4 that fits into 252, which is 240 (4 times 60). Subtract 240 from 252 to get 12. Finally, divide 12 by 4 to get 3, leaving no remainder. The quotient is 463, as shown in the calculation. This method emphasizes understanding the division process by decomposing the problem into simpler steps.
