There are several ways to divide numbers, one of them is by using long division.
The question is incomplete, so I will given a general explanation on how to perform long division.
Take for instance:
[tex]\mathbf{56 \div 9}[/tex]
First, divide 56 by 9; the result is 6 (ignore the remainder)
[tex]\mathbf{56 \div 9 = 6}[/tex]
Multiply 6 by 9
[tex]\mathbf{6 \times 9 = 54}[/tex]
Subtract 54 from 56
[tex]\mathbf{56 - 54 = 2}[/tex]
Next, divide 2 by 9; the result is 0 (ignore the remainder)
[tex]\mathbf{2 \div 9 = 0}[/tex]
A division that gives 0, means that: the dividend of the division is the remainder.
So, the result of [tex]\mathbf{56 \div 9}[/tex] is 6 with a remainder of 2.
i.e.
[tex]\mathbf{56 \div 9 = 6\ R 2}[/tex]
To know if the result is correct, we make use of the following formula:
[tex]\mathbf{Dividend = Quotient \times Divisor + Remainder}[/tex]
In this case:
[tex]\mathbf{Dividend = 56}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{Quotient = 6}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{Divisor = 9}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{Remainder = 2}[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]\mathbf{Dividend = Quotient \times Divisor + Remainder}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{56 = 6 \times 9+ 2}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{56 = 54+ 2}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{56 = 56}[/tex]
