"long" division? Wut, muttafuckah?

(/ 10 5)

1/2

Or just

(coerce (/ 10 5) 'float)

0.5

if you want it in decimal form.

I forgot how to write with a pen and no longer know where any of the US states are on a map except Texas and Florida.

>>25315033
Thats okay, I only remember a shortcut of doing it my teacher taught me. She called it "short division" its where you don't write it out... I literally forgot how to show my work.

I recently learnt how to do long division again. Feels good, man.

I'm 21 and it was for my GEDs.

Just start with learning one of the two.

Kind of glad it's slipping away from me at this point

Just remember which hand do you use for writing and you will know unless you are a gipsy

>the apply urself meme

Fuck that makes me so god damn angry. All my life teachers pumped my head and other students heads with this shit. All it does in the long run is lead to disappointment. If a kid is stupid, teach him to be a god damn ditch digger or brick layer, don't try to make him think he can do anything, because he can't.

"What is this shit, Anon? It's complete jibberish. A child could write better than this"

I wish I was making this up, that was exactly as it happened. I dropped that subject like a hot sack of shit as soon as I could.

Christ, humanity needs a cleansing so bad

If you're over the age of 10 and you can't do long division, for the love of God kill yourself

>>25316687
Most of us just forgot and need a reminder.
