What is 184 divided by 8?

It's basically keeping track of places, so 184/8:

Does 8 go into 1: No
Does 8 go into 18; Yes, 2 remainder

so:
____2
_8{184
___16
____24

Note, that the (2) is over the 8 because it did not go into 1.
18-16 is 2 and we bring down the 4.

Now you do 24/8; turns out to be 12/4 or 6/2 or 3; yep 3*8 =24 - Just did it a longer way.

Now

____23
_8{184
___16
____24
____24
_____0

Basically 3*8 = 24 and 24-24=0

Your looking for that 0 remainder or 0/8 in this case for a fractional answer. You can continue until something repeats.

And check your work: 23 * 8 = 184

I know I did the homework based on the way you asked the question. I hope this helps.
