STEP 1

Assumptions
1. We are performing long division.
2. The dividend is 15,05015,050.
3. The divisor is 2020.
4. We need to find the quotient of the division.

STEP 2

Set up the long division by writing the divisor (2020) outside the division bar and the dividend (15,05015,050) under the division bar.

STEP 3

Determine how many times the divisor (2020) can fit into the first two digits of the dividend (1515) without exceeding it.
20×?1520 \times ? \leq 15

STEP 4

Since 2020 cannot fit into 1515, we consider the first three digits of the dividend (150150).
20×?15020 \times ? \leq 150

STEP 5

Find the largest whole number that, when multiplied by 2020, does not exceed 150150.
20×7=14020 \times 7 = 140 20×8=16020 \times 8 = 160
Since 160160 exceeds 150150, we use 77.

STEP 6

Write the number 77 above the division bar, aligned with the third digit of the dividend (150150).

STEP 7

Multiply the divisor (2020) by 77 and write the result (140140) under the first three digits of the dividend (150150).

STEP 8

Subtract 140140 from 150150 to find the remainder.
150140=10150 - 140 = 10

STEP 9

Bring down the next digit of the dividend (00) to the right of the remainder (1010) to form the number 100100.

STEP 10

Determine how many times the divisor (2020) can fit into 100100 without exceeding it.
20×?10020 \times ? \leq 100

STEP 11

Find the largest whole number that, when multiplied by 2020, does not exceed 100100.
20×5=10020 \times 5 = 100

STEP 12

Write the number 55 above the division bar, aligned with the digit you just brought down (00).

STEP 13

Multiply the divisor (2020) by 55 and write the result (100100) under the number 100100.

STEP 14

Subtract 100100 from 100100 to find the remainder.
100100=0100 - 100 = 0

STEP 15

Since there are no more digits to bring down and the remainder is 00, the division is complete.

STEP 16

Combine the numbers above the division bar to find the quotient.
The quotient of the division is 7575.
