Long Division Box Method

[@carriemackify]

My son needed help understanding division. This video was an extremely helpful way for him to visualize. Thank you so much for making and posting this video!

[@brianquick3324]

+carriemackify You're welcome!

[@shanemahler6830]

Great explanation, thank you. I grew up with the 'old' style, after helping my son and showing him the way I was taught his teacher got quite upset and told the whole class to do the box method only. Like you said in the beginning, do whatever seems easier and River took to doing to the old way better. With this video I was able to use it to help him understand the Box method and he figured it out in one night. (So did I ha!)

[@tpsu129]

That's fine in the beginning, but, eventually, the students should all move to the standard algorithm. Otherwise, math will become tedious because the calculation will take forever.

[@firestriker5126]

Nice it helped me to

[@annafarmer9334]

Thank you so much for this!!! This quickly turned my 3rd grader from a long division hater to a long division lover, and ended a lot of math battles and tears at our house!

[@daniellescales8267]

YOU HAVE SAVED MY LIFE FOR MY A-LEVEL NON CALC EXAM TOMORROW THANK-YOU!! Such a good teacher :) I hate the other method!

[@jademelia3737]

Thank you so much!!! You've probably just saved me from long division on my nursing calculations exam tomorrow... Thank you thank you thank you!!!

[@jenniferwandzel9562]

This helped my 5th grader so much!! So glad I came across your page. She struggles with Math and this way really helped her!

[@brianquick3324]

So glad!

[@OMA-dee]

No stinkin' way!!! Why, oh why didn't I discover this BEFORE today?!? I gave the division chapter test to my 4th graders TODAY!!! This method would've prevented so much frustration. Thanks so much for sharing.

[@varences]

I just wanted to thank you for this video. My son came home with an F on his most recent assessment in long division. The only way I knew how to teach him was the standard algorithm which he wasn't understanding. He watched your video and followed along with the problems and it "clicked". You seem like a fantastic teacher. Thanks again!

[@brianquick3324]

varences Thanks!

[@samm3810]

I'm currently a senior at a magnet college prep school, and I'm good at H.S Math. But since I take APES, I cant use a calc, which is horrible for me because I never mastered Long division.Which made me feel dumb for so long. THX for the vid, finally I understand!

[@fabianperalta7549]

varences I’m glad it helps you it helps me too

[@melw1005]

Just found this video and it was a lifesaver for my son! Wish I had learned this way as a kid...maybe I could have been better at math.

[@tpsu129]

They called it "short division" when we were younger. Same thing but without the pretty box.

[@samer-sultan]

Great video, used this method to teach my 4th grade daughter.

[@Emmalinamama]

This method has transformed my son's ability to do long division! I made a grid for him to use based on your method and he is flying with it, just amazing. Thank you for posting this video and for introducing innovative maths teaching to struggling learners : )

[@NikiHolmes]

My 8 year old LOVES maths and he will be psyched to see this as he worked out how to do this outside class already!

[@firestriker5126]

Thank you man this helped very much my teacher told me this method a little while ago but I completely forgot it I was very upset that I forgot it but then I had realized that maybe it's on KZbin then I found your channel thank you so much!!! And since you helped me I liked and subscribed to your Channel thank you very much!!!

[@yvettechaidez]

Love it!!! Does it work with four digits number inside and two outside

[@katejeschke]

Super awesome! Helped us out with our homework tonight :) William and Kate

[@whosjoe5498]

I kinda forgot how to do it you really helped thanks

Thank you so much 😊 this helped me so much on my test!!!! Thank you

[@radoncic81]

Thank u I'm on my dads I pad and I struggled with long divison but u helped alot

[@WillBaker.]

Thanks so much! I had trouble with this at school so I had to take it home for homework this helped a lot.

[@christianamoralesrodriguez9191]

[@Plushes]

THIS HELPED SO FRICKIN MUCH

[@thatyouboy]

Hi

[@thatyouboy]

Me have this for homework

[@Plushes]

@@thatyouboy Wow I commented that 5 yrs ago holy shit

[@thatyouboy]

yes

[@thatyouboy]

But it still hard

[@sofiakostella1426]

Can this actually work in also 2-digit numbers? And can this also work in more than 3-digit numbers? Thank you.

[@brianquick3324]

+Sofia Kostella Yes! Dividend, not divisor.

[@devip4683]

thanks for the video cause i had it for homework

[@firestriker5126]

Same basically!

[@door3752]

This helped me a lot! Thank you!!

[@thisissarahsyoutubechanel6845]

This was really helpful my teacher learns this way now

[@lillie2096]

Thank you soooo much you made it so easy to understand.

[@vadoortamilan4905]

this method is really useful!

[@thebaddiessquad8569]

this really help's me thank you so much

[@lailab8245]

Thanks this vid really helped i be having trouble with it I'm studying math because school is about to start and I'm going to go to the 5th grade thank you so much

[@brianquick3324]

+Laila B You're welcome!

[@jstrails2555]

this was so easy and fun thank you!!!!!

[@veronicabhave5675]

My Kid will learn this in No time I am gratified :)

[@gio8493]

Gujbh

[@kaurypto9302]

Please please can you make more videos like this with 2 / 3 digits.

[@charlottesboy]

Thanks for making it a simple way to learn

[@brianquick3324]

+Thomas Melton Sure!

[@isabellaaraujo4229]

Thank you this helped me a lot my teacher assign us this and it helped me a lot

[@sameeknowsitall]

same

[@charlotteburnett272]

Is the answer 164r3?

[@wajihaanddina8587]

U helped me a lot

[@rachelfullmer444]

what if you cant fit your outside number into the other number? example:8 into 2???

[@brianquick3324]

Rachel Fullmer use a zero in your quotient, so for example. 8 goes into 2 zero times.

[@marirzauriostegui7367]

thank you this help a lot

[@shadowdudeex5345]

Hey thanks man this made my homework more great thanks man you da beast

[@leslietherealmrs.wright6979]

Im trying to help my son and I'm lost how do you solve wen the area table is already field out

[@brianquick3324]

+Leslie The Real Mrs. Wright Not sure what you mean. The table needs to be filled out to solve.

[@ragemomentsormadmoments7824]

Brian Quick in my old school I forgot how to do it because it's was summer break the last day of school then on the first day of school and to no2 I don't remember how to do box method then you did this and I remembered. Thank you.

[@mystic4340]

Does it work with 2 digits

[@yomovr9116]

? I don't know

[@kevintello3675]

This is helpful☺

[@zoepowell9354]

Who got the answer for the last question?

[@deandrablogs5989]

Please do more

[@didiespi4800]

What if the problem is 41/9963 and u cant . 41.9 what do u do??

[@brianquick3324]

+Didi Espi You wouldn't use this method for multi-digit by multi-digit division. You could use it for decimals however, you would just need to know to move the decimal up.

[@didiespi4800]

+Brian Quick oh ok

[@wajihaanddina8587]

+Brian Quick do you use it in multiplaction

[@brianquick3324]

Search for my lattice multiplication video, that is similar.

[@keylaquezada5531]

Ty this was my hw and now I get it

[@wajihaanddina8587]

I'm ur fan

[@BroJJ]

Very helpful!

[@suttonparkschool8989]

Hi do u have a demo using 2 digit numbers using box method?

[@brianquick3324]

Not a video, but it would be the same way, you would just have a 0 above the first column because obviously a two-digit number won't "go into" a one-digit number. You'd just move the number over until you had a suitable two digit number to divide.

[@suttonparkschool8989]

What is yr response when ppl tell u this is the wrong way to teach students long division? (it happend to me today)

[@brianquick3324]

If it helps someone, it helps.

[@noahmantari3324]

Thank goodness thank you.I needed this for my homework \(*-*)/

[@quillquilliams1744]

This really helps me get better at division in my math class 😀

[@hobocody7176]

thank you so much mate

[@Felenari]

Using this to study for my ASVAB. Ty.

[@tyrelmcpherson241]

That helped a lot

[@tortl]

i forgot this so I came to this random video

[@Mark-wb8ck]

this is exactly same to the ordinary method. its just you have put some lines between numbers.. Try to divide 574 by 65 using this method.

[@brianquick3324]

+Dark Mark (මාක් සකර්බර්ග්) Of course, but it helps visual learners. Both are viable methods.

We use different way but your way a little easier

[@Rohan_lift]

where did you get the 1

you got the one from multiplying three times one

i thought 3/7 + 7364767364763489673983775657855936 im so confused

[@dennisdaley7534]

I checked the first one and it doesn't come out right. This is wrong!

[@HA-wz3dt]

it comes out right you were doing t wrong

[@soniahille5934]

The remainder is .3333

[@katiekeller1270]

YAY

[@jenniferclayton9436]

This strategy is meant to be a part of place value. However, you are teaching the exact standard algorithm not even discussing place value! The only difference is you are drawing a BOX. You are not mentioning that the 3 is being divided into 500...you just say 3 divided by 5. How is this different? I don't see this explanation as supporting student place value understanding at all.

[@brianquick3324]

+Jennifer Clayton You may teach it however you like. It isn't a be-all-end-all place value or division lesson. It is a supplement. However, students who have had difficulty with standard algorithm computations have shown success using this. Division is division - but this visual method seems to really impact students and they have achieved results. Feel free to not use this method if you so choose. It is another option for learners.

[@MegaItdragon]

Scoooooooool

[@XWhiteWinter]

191.3333 actually

[@brianquick3324]

The remainder is 1, i.e. 1/3...i.e. your answer as a fraction :)

[@rhondaparker2955]

herrrrro

[@melissahacker596]

This is not a conceptual strategy. It is great as a "trick" but does not teach what division truly means in the sense of place value. It works... but a student would still not be able to explain in a deeper understanding. For example... the 7 in the dividend is NOT a 7, it is a 700. Teaching division this way is stripping students of the foundations of division.

[@brianquick3324]

Not really. Some students aren't ready for a deeper understanding, but this can help get them there.

[@crystalchandra181]

what

[@arcanernz]

574/3=191.333... not 191.1

[@TeamRockHit4]

He puts it as 191 remainder 1, which is another way of writing 191 1/3 for a fractional answer. This is correct.

[@draganradosavljevic8982]

Complicated. There are much easier ways to teach this. Even traditional way is better.
