Long Division Animation

With Long Division you follow this process:

	Start with the left-most digit of the dividend
	Divide that by the divisor, ignoring the remainder! Put the whole number result above the line (part of the answer) Multiply that whole number result by the divisor Put that below what you just worked on Subtract "Bring down" the next digit, to create a new value to work on
	Repeat, using the new value

Here is this process shown in action using the same numbers as on the Long Division page. I have to use it three times around to get the answer (press play button below):

Note: I calculate the remainders (such as "r25") just for the demonstration, you don't need to when solving, because they are ignored.

A Slightly Different Method

To save dividing and multiplying you can make a table of multiples of the divisor first, and then just "look up" the largest value that is not greater as you go, like this:
