Long Division: Solve 1250 ÷ 5

To solve the division problem $1250 \div 5$, we will use long division.

• Step 1: Identify the first part of the dividend (1250) that is divisible by 5. We start with the first digit, which is 1. Since 1 is less than 5, we consider the first two digits, 12.
• Step 2: Determine how many times 5 fits into 12. It fits 2 times since $5 \times 2 = 10$. Write 2 above the long division bar.
• Step 3: Subtract 10 from 12, leaving a remainder of 2. Bring down the next digit, 5, making it 25.
• Step 4: Determine how many times 5 goes into 25. It fits exactly 5 times since $5 \times 5 = 25$. Write 5 above the bar, next to 2.
• Step 5: Subtract 25 from 25, leaving a remainder of 0. Bring down the last digit, 0, making it 00.
• Step 6: Since 5 goes into 0 exactly 0 times, write 0 above the division bar as the last digit of the quotient.

After completing the division, the result above the division bar shows the quotient: $250$.

Therefore, the solution to the problem is $250$.
