What is the first step to solving the division problem below? 6288 divided by 8 Divide 8 into 62 to get 7. Divide 8 into 62 to get 8. Multiply 8 by 7 to get 56. Multiply 8 by 8 to get 62.

Answer 1

The answer is A. or Divide 8 into 62 to get 7.

The answer is A. because if you start a long division problem you need to do these steps in order:

Divide

Multiply

Subtract

Repeat/Remainder,

So you divide first so that automatically takes off C./D.

Then figure out if 8 goes into 62 or 7 goes into 62

8 x 8=64. 64 is over 62, which means its incorrect.

7 x 8=56. It is less than 62, so it is correct.

Hope this helps.
