Explanation:
Start by setting it up with the divisor 2 on the left side and the dividend 30 on the right side like this:
2 ⟌ 3 0
Step 2:
The divisor (2) goes into the first digit of the dividend (3), 1 time(s). Therefore, put 1 on top:
1
2 ⟌ 3 0
Step 3:
Multiply the divisor by the result in the previous step (2 x 1 = 2) and write that answer below the dividend.
1
2 ⟌ 3 0
2
Step 4:
Subtract the result in the previous step from the first digit of the dividend (3 - 2 = 1) and write the answer below.
1
2 ⟌ 3 0
- 2
1
Step 5:
Move down the 2nd digit of the dividend (0) like this:
1
2 ⟌ 3 0
- 2
1 0
Step 6:
The divisor (2) goes into the bottom number (10), 5 time(s). Therefore, put 5 on top:
1 5
2 ⟌ 3 0
- 2
1 0
Step 7:
Multiply the divisor by the result in the previous step (2 x 5 = 10) and write that answer at the bottom:
1 5
2 ⟌ 3 0
- 2
1 0
1 0
Step 8:
Subtract the result in the previous step from the number written above it. (10 - 10 = 0) and write the answer at the bottom.
1 5
2 ⟌ 3 0
- 2
1 0
- 1 0
