How to do the long division method?

To catechumen the fraction to decimal write the numbers in the long partitioning with 3 as the dividend and 8 as the divisor.
As 3 cannot be divided by viii, we can add 0 to 3 to make it 30 and add a decimal betoken in the quotient.
Continue the partition, if you go a residual that is smaller than 8, you tin can add 0 to it to make it divisible by eight.
Perform the division till you get the remainder 0 or till the remainder gets repeated.

Here we have performed the partition till nosotros arrived at 0 as the remainder. Every bit we cannot divide further, the answer would be the quotient we got from this division, 0.375.
