336 divided by 12 using partial quotients

The partial quotients are 20 and 8. The quotient is 28.

Step-by-step explanation:

The dividend is 336 and divisor is 12.

Find the easy factors of 12, which are less than 336.

Since 360>336, therefore 30 cannot be a partial quotient.

So, 20 is a partial quotient. Subtract 240 from 336. Apply this process till the dividend become 0.

The remaining dividend is

Find the easy factors of 12, which are less than 96.

The number 8 is a partial quotient.

Now the dividend is zero, so the partial quotients are 20 and 8. The quotient is the sum of partial quotients

The quotient is 28.
