To find

412

using partial quotients, subtract multiples of 2 from 412 until you reach 0. Then, see how many times 2 goes into 412.

Step 1: Subtract multiples of 2 until you reach 0.

An easy multiple of 2 is 200, which is equal to

100

Subtract 200 from 412.

–

You can subtract 200 again. So, subtract 200 from 212.

–

Now subtract 12, which is also a multiple of 2. It is equal to

–

Step 2: See how many times 2 goes into 412.

412 can be broken up into 200, 200, and 12. Add the number of times 2 goes into each of those parts.

So, the quotient of 412 and 2 is 206.
