An example from the Sallys' book: Divide a=39 by b=7. Using the division algorithm, we have 39=7x5+4. Here the dividend is 39, the divisor is 7, the quotient q=5 and the remainder r= 4 and 0<4<7 ...

With the help of Pascual-Leone's Theory of Constructive Operators, this study investigated the hypothesis that understanding of the long division algorithm requires a higher cognitive level, or ...

While it may sound daunting, partial quotient algorithm (or partial quotient division) is a method for dividing numbers that's much more accessible than the familiar but more abstract long division.
