150/60

Use the 1st digit 1 from dividend 150

60)  150

Since 1 is less than 60, use the next digit 5 from dividend 150 and add 0 to the quotient

     0    

60) 150

Use the 2nd digit 5 from dividend 150

    00  

60)150

Use the 3rd digit 0 from dividend 150

    00  

60)150

    002  

60)150

     120

________

        30

Since 30 is less than 60, stop the division. The remainder is 30. The topmost line 002 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 2.

Quotient: 2

Reminder: 30

2 and 30 as a factor =

hello from mrbilldoesmath!

answer:

a(n) - a(n-1) -3

discussion:

this ones a bit interesting. given a(n) = 5 - 3n consider this:

a(n-1) = 5 - 3(n-1)

          = (5 - 3n) + 3             => but a(n) = 5 - 3n, the first term

          = a(n)   + 3                 => subtract 3 from both sides

a(n-1) -3 = a(n)  

or

a(n) - a(n-1) -3
