When, dividing any number, we start from the highest valued digit.
In 3-digit numbers this would be the hundreds.
For this, you will need your 2 times tables.
How many 2s fit into 6?
The answer is 3.
We write the answer 3 above the ‘bus stop’ in the hundreds column.
How many 2s fit into the number 8?
The answer is 4.
We write the answer 4 above the ‘bus stop’ in the tens column.
How many 2s fit into 8?
The answer is 4.
We write the answer 4 above the ‘bus stop’ in the ones’ column.
This means, 84 divided by 4 = 21.
