Question

Why should we subtract the remaining digits in division ​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Division is repeated subtraction. It is the process of dividing a number (dividend) with another number with the same or lesser value (divisor) to find the quotient and a remainder. This remainder is 0 if the divisor is a factor of the dividend, it’s non-zero if the divisor is not a factor.

If the quotient is later multiplied with the divisor, we get the dividend.
