49000 divided by 12

Steps to Solve

1. Set up the division operation

We need to divide 49000 by 12, which can be set up as:

$$ \frac{49000}{12} $$

2. Perform the long division

To divide 49000 by 12, we can perform long division.

• First, see how many times 12 fits into the first part of 490 (or 4900).
• 12 fits into 49 zero times.
• Next, check how many times it fits into 490. We find that $12 \times 40 = 480$.

3. Subtract and bring down the next digit

Now, we subtract 480 from 490, which gives us 10, then bring down the next digit (0) to make 100.

$$ 490 - 480 = 10 $$

4. Continue dividing

Now we need to see how many times 12 fits into 100.

• $12 \times 8 = 96$ gives the quotient for this part.

5. Final subtraction and remainder

Subtract 96 from 100, resulting in 4. Since there are no more digits to bring down, we can denote this as a remainder.

$$ 100 - 96 = 4 $$

So far, we have 408 with a remainder 4.

6. Express the final answer

The result can be expressed as:

$$ 408 \text{ R } 4 $$

or as a decimal:

$$ 408 + \frac{4}{12} = 408 + \frac{1}{3} \approx 408.33 $$
