Transcript text: $5 \longdiv { 1 6 5 }$

Solution

Step 1: Set up the division problem

Write the division problem as $ 5 \longdiv { 165 } $.

Step 2: Divide the first digit

Divide the first digit of the dividend (1) by the divisor (5). Since 1 is less than 5, consider the first two digits (16).

Step 3: Divide 16 by 5

Divide 16 by 5. The result is 3 with a remainder. Write 3 above the second digit of the dividend.

Step 4: Multiply and subtract

Multiply 3 by 5 to get 15. Subtract 15 from 16 to get a remainder of 1.

Step 5: Bring down the next digit

Bring down the next digit (5) to make the new number 15.

Step 6: Divide 15 by 5

Divide 15 by 5. The result is 3 with no remainder. Write 3 above the last digit of the dividend.

Step 7: Multiply and subtract

Multiply 3 by 5 to get 15. Subtract 15 from 15 to get a remainder of 0.

The final result is $ 33 $.

$\boxed{33}$
