Divide: 14,616 ÷ 24

Explanation

\[ \begin{array}{r} 6 \enspace 0 \enspace 9 \\ \hline 24 \big) 1 \enspace 4 \enspace 6 \enspace 1 \enspace 6 \\ \underline{-1 \enspace 4 \enspace 4} \phantom{\enspace 0 \enspace 0} \\ 2 \enspace 1 \phantom{\enspace 0} \\ \underline{-\enspace 0 \phantom{\enspace 0}} \phantom{\enspace 0} \\ 2 \enspace 1 \enspace 6 \\ \underline{-2 \enspace 1 \enspace 6} \\ 0 \\ \end{array} \]

\(14{,}616 \div 24 = 609\). Note the 0 in the tens column of the quotient — 24 does not divide into the 1 brought down after the hundreds step. Check: \(609 \times 24 = 14{,}616\) ✓
