short division

Short division is an abbreviated form of long division.

Short division enables computations involving arbitrarily large dividends to be performed by following a series of simple steps.

Maybe a short division.

It's a short division, old equipment-T-55s and such-but serviceable.

In arithmetic, short division is a division algorithm which breaks down a division problem into a series of easy steps.

Short division does not use the / (slash) or (obelus) signs.

Compared to the short division and long division methods more traditionally taught, chunking may seem unfamiliar, and also unsystematic, even arbitrary.

When one is only interested in the remainder of the division, this variation on short division ignores the quotient and tallies only remainder digits.

The abbreviated form of long division is called short division, which is almost always used instead of long division when the divisor has only one digit.

"As a spot to assemble a battalion of tanks, much less a short division," Brigadier General Rand McKeen said, dryly, "it leaves a lot to be desired."

Plane Geometry, Analytic Geometry, Algebra, Differential Calculus, and even Long and Short Division fell into the sphere of Tamblin's hatred.

In such a case a Muslim can neither observe the five daily prayers, as they are tied to different stages of the sun in a day, nor can there be any fasting, which also needs shorter division of days and nights, as well as the division of the year into months.

More systematic and more efficient (but also more formalised and more rule-based, and more removed from an overall holistic picture of what division is achieving), a person who knows the multiplication tables can divide two integers using pencil and paper using the method of short division, if the divisor is simple.
