Mastering Long Division Techniques

The video tutorial introduces a mnemonic device using a family structure to remember the steps of long division: Dad (Divide), Mom (Multiply), Sister (Subtract), Brother (Bring Down), and Rover (Repeat or Remainder). The instructor provides two examples to demonstrate the process, ensuring students understand how to apply each step in solving long division problems.

What does the 'Dad' in the family analogy represent in long division?

• Bring down

• Subtract

• Multiply

• Divide

Which family member represents the 'Subtract' step in long division?

• Brother

• Mom

• Sister

• Rover

What does 'Rover' represent in the long division steps?

• Divide

• Repeat or Remainder

• Subtract

• Multiply

Which step comes immediately after multiplying in the long division process?

• Subtract

• Divide

• Repeat or Remainder

• Bring down

After subtracting, what does 'Brother' suggest you do next in the process?

• Repeat or Remainder

• Bring down

• Divide

• Multiply

In the first example, what is the first step according to 'Dad'?

• Bring down 3

• 3 minus 2

• 4 divided by 2

• 2 times 2

In the first example, what is the final answer after completing all steps?

• 215

• 163

• 216

• 164

What is the first step in solving the second example problem?

• Bring down 1

• 8 divided by 5

• 8 minus 5

• 5 times 1

In the second example, what does 'Mom' say to do after dividing 31 by 5?

• 5 times 6

• Bring down 5

• 31 minus 30

• Repeat the steps

What is the final answer for the division problem in the second example?

• 162

• 163

• 164

• 165
